A corrigendum on
Exploring the shared molecular mechanisms between systemic lupus erythematosus and primary Sjögren’s syndrome based on integrated bioinformatics and single-cell RNA-seq analysis

by Cui Y, Zhang H, Wang Z, Gong B, Al-Ward H, Deng Y, Fan O, Wang J, Zhu W and Sun YE (2023). Front. Immunol. 14:1212330. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1212330

In the published article, there was an error in Figures 8C, 9A, 9B, 10C, 10E and Supplementary Figures S5E, S6A, S7E as published. We noticed that a cell type was incorrectly described. The “gd T cells” should be “CD8 memory T cells” in our article since the R codes were not revised in time. The corrected Figures 8, 9, 10 and Supplementary Figures 5, 6 and 7 and their captions “FIGURE 8 Validation of hub genes in scRNA-seq datasets”, “FIGURE 9 Landscape map of IC in SLE and pSS datasets”, “FIGURE 10 Verification of related pathways in scRNA-seq datasets”, “Supplementary Figure 5 Functional analysis of upregulated DEGs in scRNA-seq”, “Supplementary Figure 6 Heatmap of correlation matrix”, “Supplementary Figure 7 The expression levels of ITGB2 signaling pathway related genes (ITGB2, ICAM1, ICAM2, CD226 and ITGAL)” appear below or can be found in the Supplementary Material of the original article.

(B) UMAP visualization GSE135779 scRNAseq datasets; Different colors indicate distinct cell types. (C) Cellular composition in SLE and HCs group (D) Cellular composition in pSS and HCs group. The colors represent different cell types. (E) Violin plot of hub genes expression in different cell types in SLE. (F) Violin plot of hub genes expression in different cell types in pSS. SLE, systemic lupus erythematosus; pSS, primary Sjögren’s syndrome.
