A corrigendum on
Advancements in understanding the molecular and immune mechanisms of Bartonella pathogenicity
by Jin, X., Gou, Y., Xin, Y., Li, J., Sun, J., Li, T., and Feng, J. (2023). Advancements in understanding the molecular and immune mechanisms of Bartonella pathogenicity. Front Microbiol. 14:1196700. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1196700
In the published article, there was an error in the section Infection of endothelial cells (ECs), paragraph 1. The citation in “Bartonella species have been found to inhabit various host cells, including mononuclear phagocytes, CD34+ progenitor cells, and mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) (Scutera et al., 2021), but …” was incorrect. The correct citation is “(Mändle et al., 2005)”. In the published article, this work was not included in the list of references. The reference is “Mändle, T., Einsele, H., Schaller, M., Neumann, D., Vogel, W., Autenrieth, I. B., et al. (2005). Infection of human CD34+ progenitor cells with Bartonella henselae results in intraerythrocytic presence of B. henselae. Blood 106, 1215–1222. doi: 10.1182/blood-2004-12-4670”.
In the published article, there was an error in the section Infection of endothelial cells (ECs), paragraph 1. The citation in “The degradation of extracellular matrix proteins has been confirmed to be facilitated by the interaction between fibrinolysis and several pathogen proteins (Vaca et al., 2022).” was incorrect. The correct citation is “(Lähteenmäki et al., 2001)” In the published article, this work was not included in the list of references. The reference is “Lähteenmäki, K., Kuusela, P., Korhonen, T. K. (2001). Bacterial plasminogen activators and receptors. FEMS Microbiol. Rev. 25, 531–552. doi: 10.1111/j.1574-6976.2001.tb00590.x”.
In the published article, there was an error in the section Infection of endothelial cells (ECs), paragraph 2. The citation in “These adhesins belong to the trimeric autotransporter adhesin (TAA) family (Hoiczyk et al., 2000).” was incorrect. The correct citation is “(Linke et al., 2006)”. As the work is no longer cited, the reference “Hoiczyk E, Roggenkamp A, Reichenbecher M, Lupas A, Heesemann J (2000). Structure and sequence analysis of Yersinia YadA and Moraxella UspAs reveal a novel class of adhesins. EMBO J. 19, 5989–5899. doi: 10.1093/emboj/19.22.5989” has been removed.
In the published article, there was an error in the section Infection of endothelial cells (ECs), paragraph 3. The citation in “It activates hypoxia-inducible factor-1 and stimulates the secretion of pro-angiogenic cytokines, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand (CXCL) 8 (Kaiser et al., 2008, 2012), contributing to Bartonella-induced vasoproliferation.” was incorrect. The correct citation is “(Riess et al., 2004; Kempf et al., 2005; McCord et al., 2006)” In the published article, the following works were not included in the list of references, but have been added:

As it is no longer cited, the reference “(1) Kaiser, P. O., Linke, D., Schwarz, H., Leo, J. C., and Kempf, V. A. (2012).

Microbiol. 14, 198–209. doi: 10.1111/j.1462-5822.2011.01711.x” has been removed.
In the published article, there was an error in the section Blood-sucking arthropods as vectors for Bartonella transmission, paragraph 1. The citation in “… human body lice Pediculus humanus corporis for B. quintana (Kloch et al., 2018)…” was incorrect. The correct citation is “(Byam and Lloyd, 1920)”. In the published article, this work was not included in the list of references. The reference is “Byam, W., and Lloyd, L. (1920). Trench fever: its epidemiology and endemiology. Proc. R. Soc. Med. 13, 1–27.” As it is no longer cited, the reference “Kloch, A., Wenzel, M. A., Laetsch, D. R., Michalski, O., Bajer, A., Behnke, J. M., et al. (2018).
