Taxifolin increased semen quality of Duroc boars by improving gut microbes and blood metabolites
by Zhou, Y., Chen, L., Han, H., Xiong, B., Zhong, R., Jiang, Y., Liu, L., Sun, H., Tan, J., Cheng, X., Schroyen, M., Gao, Y., Zhao, Y., and Zhang, H. (2022). Front. Microbiol. 13:1020628. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.1020628
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 2A as published. The photos for CON group for PKA/Nuclei and ZAG/Nuclei are vague and are similar to the photos in our another article.
The corrected Figure 2A and its caption appear below.
Figure 2
Figure 2. Effects of TAX on the protein expression of important genes related to sperm quality. (A) Immunofluorescence staining (IHF) of p-ERK, PKA, and ZAG. (B) Quantitative data for IHF staining of p-ERK, PKA, and ZAG (Fold change to CON). (C) Western blotting (WB) of Catsper. (D) Quantitative data for Catsper staining (Fold change to CON). *p < 0.05.
