A Corrigendum on
Standardised Sonneratia apetala Buch.-Ham. fruit extract inhibits human neutrophil elastase and attenuates elastase-induced lung injury in mice
by Sengupta S, Abhinav N, Singh S, Dutta J, Mabalirajan U, Kaliyamurthy K, Mukherjee PK, Jaisankar P and Bandyopadhyay A (2022). Front. Pharmacol. 13:1011216. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2022.1011216
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 5A as published. The bottom 3 rows of iCAM 1 panel (red colour) are inadvertently swapped with WGA panel (green colour). The corrected Figure 5 and its caption appear below.
FIGURE 5. S. apetala fruit extracts ameliorates ICAM-1 release induced by neutrophil elastase in vitro (A) The ICAM-1 expression in lung epithelial cells was significantly increased after 1 h of elastase treatment (B) Increase in ICAM-1 expression after 2 h with deformation in cell shape was restored in SAM/Sivelestat groups (C) Complete rounding of elongated epithelial cells with increased ICAM-1 expression reversed by concomitant treatment of SAM/Sivelestat (C) as assessed under Confocal microscope at ×60 magnification stained with DAPI (blue). Anti-ICAM-1 antibody (red), and WGA (green) (D) Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) was calculated for ICAM-1 expression at each time point (E) sICAM levels were measured after 1, 2 and 3 h of elastase treatment by ELISA. Significant increase in sICAM levels were observed after second and third hour which was reversed by treatment with SAM/Sivelestat.
