In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 3 as published. On Figure 3 panel F, an error was made when assembling the representative imagens on the board, and the same image was included twice for the SHR Control group and SHR Telm + PD group. The correct representative image for the SHR Control group was included and the corrected Figure 3 appears below.
The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
FIGURE 3. RAS components expression in mandibles of Wistar (non-hypertensive) and SHR with PD 15 days, treated with telmisartan. Respectively qRT-PCR and IHC for Agt (A,B), Ace (C,D), Agtr1 (E,F), and Agtr2 (G,H). Graphs show mean ± SEM (n = 6). Statistical difference are represented by brackets labeled by *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, and ****p < 0.0001, comparing Control vs. PD, PD vs. Telm + PD, and Wistar vs. SHR in the same experimental condition. Board shows representative images, and upper table presents the average immunostaining patter from each experimental group (n = 5). Black arrows point bone forming cells positive stained (osteoblasts and osteocytes), and white arrows indicate positive stained alveolar bone adjacent connective tissue.
