For example:There was a mistake in the Funding statement, an incorrect number was used. The correct number is "2015C03Bd051.". The publisher apologizes for this mistake.The original version of this article has been updated. [State the mistake which was made] The two figures above and below in Figure 1K-L, related to SOX2 staining, are part of a series of photographs aimed at demonstrating that GB explantssmall tissue fragments approximately 300 µm in size-retain the original cytoarchitecture of the tissue from which they are derived (surgery tissue). The upper figure represents an image of the surgery tissue, while the lower figure shows the corresponding small explant (GB-EXP) derived from it. The SOX2 staining was specifically performed to add further evidence of the preserved representation of tumor components within the GB explant, a conclusion also supported by other images in the series (GFAP; CD105,CD33).We acknowledge an error of duplication in the figures related to SOX2, as the upper image is, in fact, a photo of the same explant but with a slightly shifted area. We deeply regret this misplacement and are providing the correct image of the tumor stained with SOX2. The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
