Error in Figure

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 4 as published. The representative picture of the immunohistochemistry staining for aSMA of the group entitled BLM (w1-6) + nintedanib (w4-6) was erroneously selected from a different group of mice. The corrected Figure 4 appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
Figure 4. Treatment with 17-DMAG prevents further progression and may induce regression of proliferation of myofibroblasts induced by bleomycin. (A) Representative images of α-smooth muscle actin (aSMA)-stained skin sections are shown. aSMA-positive cells are stained brown, nuclei are counterstained blue by hematoxylin. Original magnification ×400. (B) Treatment with 17-DMAG prevents further progression and induces regression of the proliferation of myofibroblasts induced by bleomycin. The extent of the protective effects of 17-DMAG is comparable to the effect of the treatment with nintedanib. Columns represent the mean, and whiskers represent the standard error of the mean. w, week; NaCl, sodium chloride; BLM, bleomycin; 17-DMAG, 17-dimethylaminoethylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (inhibitor of Heat shock protein 90); ns, not significant (p ≥ 0.05); n = 8 mice in each group.
