Error in Figure
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 4A as published. In Figure 4A, the image representing hWJS-CM (100%) at 24h was identified to be the same as the hWJS-CM (50%) at 48h. The corrected Figure 4A and its caption appear below.
FIGURE 4
Figure 4 Representative phase contrast images of OVCAR3 cells treated with hWJSC-CM (A) and OVCAR3 cells treated with hWJSC-CL (B). There were more cell death and decreases in OVCAR3 cells treated with increasing concentrations of hWJSC-CM and hWJSC-CL with time. Thin black arrows indicate dead translucent cells; The magnified images (a–d) represent the respective boxed area (a-d) within the main figure and shows decrease in the size of cells, membrane damages and condensed or fragmented nuclei. hWJSC-CM: human Wharton’s jelly stem cells conditioned medium; hWJSC-CL, human Wharton’s jelly stem cell lysate.
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.
