A Corrigendum on
Dual-Targeting Nanoparticle-Mediated Gene Therapy Strategy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma by Delivering Small Interfering RNA
by Zheng, Q. C., Jiang, S., Wu, Y. Z., Shang, D., Zhang, Y., Hu, S. B., et al. (2020). Front. Bioeng. Biotechnol. 8:512. doi: 10.3389/fbioe.2020.00512
In the published article, there was an error in affiliations 1 and 2. Affiliation 1 should be “Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China”. Affiliation 2 should be “Department of Vascular Surgery, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology,Wuhan, China”.
In the original article, there was a mistake in the Graphical Abstract and in Figure 1 as published. “EPR effect” was incorrectly written as “ERP effect”. The corrected Graphical Abstract and Figure 1 appear below.
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
Graphical Abstract.
FIGURE 1
Figure 1. Schematic representation of GCGA–siPAK1 promoting targeted delivery and therapeutic efficacy in HCC xenograft mouse model. The process includes four steps: (1) intravenous administration of GCGA–siPAK1 via tail vein; (2) NPs accumulation in tumor tissue via passive targeting (commonly known as the EPR effect); (3) three modalities of active targeting via dual-ligand-receptor-mediated endocytosis and mechanism of RNAi (siPAK1-induced PAK1 silencing); (4) tumor biological behaviors after PAK1 silencing; and (5) molecular mechanism of promoting cell apoptosis via PAK1/MEK/ERK pathway.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
