Subsequently to the publication of the above article, an interested reader drew to the attention of the Editorial Office that, in Fig. 1C on p. 1242, the flow cytometric images contained what appeared to be regular and repeating groups of cells. The office consequently asked the authors to provide the raw data for these images, as they would have been generated from the printouts, and the authors were able to demonstrate that these apparent anomalies were not contained in the original data. It is possible that the anomalous appearance of the data in this Figure may have resulted either from low resolution of the images, or the Figure itself may have been compressed. We are reprinting Fig. 1C opposite, highlighting the data of interest in greater detail. We trust that this satisfies the concerns of the reader in this instance, and thank them for their enquiry to the Editorial Office. The authors also requested that, after having provided the raw data of the original image in order to clarify the concerns of the reader, they may republish Fig. 1 featuring alternative data for Fig. 1C. The revised version of Fig. 1 is consequently shown on the next page. In this figure, flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that treatment with 10 µM gemcitabine induced the death of 66.5% of the BxPC‑3 cells, 29.54% of the Panc‑1 cells, and 34.52% of the MIApaca‑2 cells (Fig. 1C). The authors confirm that these data support the main conclusions presented in their paper, and are grateful to the Editor of International Journal of Oncology for allowing them this opportunity to publish a Corrigendum. They also apologise to the readership for any inconvenience caused. [the original article was published in International Journal of Oncology 51: 1239‑1248, 2017; DOI: 10.3892/ijo.2017.4099].
在上述文章发表后,一位感兴趣的读者向编辑部指出,在第 1242 页的图 1C 中,流式细胞术图像中似乎包含有规则且重复的细胞群。编辑部因此要求作者提供这些图像的原始数据,因为这些数据是从打印输出中生成的,而作者能够证明这些看似异常的数据并不包含在原始数据中。图 1 中数据的异常外观可能是由于图像分辨率低,或者图像本身被压缩。我们重新印刷了图 1C,突出显示了更详细的感兴趣的数据。我们相信这满足了读者在这种情况下的关注,并感谢他们向编辑部提出的询问。作者还要求,在提供原始图像的原始数据以澄清读者的担忧之后,他们可以重新发表图 1,并为图 1C 提供替代数据。因此,下一页显示了修订后的图 1。在该图中,流式细胞术分析表明,用 10µM 吉西他滨处理诱导 66.5%的 BxPC-3 细胞、29.54%的 Panc-1 细胞和 34.52%的 MIApaca-2 细胞死亡(图 1C)。作者确认这些数据支持他们在论文中提出的主要结论,并感谢国际肿瘤学杂志的编辑允许他们有机会发表更正。他们还向读者表示歉意,给他们带来了任何不便。[原始文章发表于国际肿瘤学杂志 51:1239-1248, 2017;DOI:10.3892/ijo.2017.4099]。
