A Corrigendum on
Exploiting Glutamine Consumption in Atherosclerotic Lesions by Positron Emission Tomography Tracer (2S,4R)-4-18F-Fluoroglutamine
By Palani S, Miner MWG, Virta J, Liljenbäck H, Eskola O, Örd T, Ravindran A, Kaikkonen MU, Knuuti J, Li X-G, Saraste A and Roivainen A (2022) Front. Immunol. 13:821423. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.821423
In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 2 as published. The Mac-3 and SLC7A7 images on the left column were incorrectly positioned, i.e they had changed places. The corrected Figure 2 appears below.
FIGURE 2
Figure 2 Expression of Mac-3 and glutamine transporters by mouse aortic plaque macrophages. Movat’s pentachrome staining of the aortic root demonstrates that atherosclerotic plaques were composed mostly of a fibrous cap and a necrotic region. Immunostaining of adjacent sections shows that Mac-3-positive macrophages are also positive for glutamine transporters SLC1A5, SLC3A2, and SLC7A7. Higher magnifications of the valve and plaque vessel regions are shown in the black and red rectangular boxes, respectively. Expression of SLC1A5 is prominent in the aortic valve region but not in the vessel plaque region. Expression of SLC3A2 is absent from the valve region but present in the vessel plaque region. Expression of SLC7A7 is clear in both the valve and vessel plaque regions. Scale bar = 200 μm; zoomed region scale bar = 50 μm.
