A corrigendum on
Isoliquiritigenin Protects Against Pancreatic Injury and Intestinal Dysfunction After Severe Acute Pancreatitis via Nrf2 Signaling

by Zhang M, Wu Y-Q, Xie L, Wu J, Xu K, Xiao J and Chen D-Q (2018). Front. Pharmacol. 9:936. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2018.00936

In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 1, Figure 4G, Figure 5E and Figure 6E as published. During the process of making substantial amendments to our manuscript, Figures 1G, H were replaced by Figures 4D, E by mistake. In Figure 4G and Figure 5E, the internal reference proteins, GAPDH were incorrect. The Sham group in Figure 6E was selected from another group by mistake. The corrected figures appear below.

Figure 1 Isoliquiritigenin (ISL) treatment protects against combined cerulein plus LPS-induced severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in pancreatic tissue. (A, C) Pancreatic morphological changes in the different groups at 24 h after SAP. (B) Pancreatic histological scores. (D, E) Expression of c-caspase-3 protein in pancreatic tissue from the different groups at 24 h after SAP. GAPDH was used as the loading control and for band density normalization. (F) Statistical graph of c-caspase-3 proteins. (G, H) Immunofluorescence staining for c-caspase-3 (green) and DAPI (blue) in the different groups. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. n = 5 per group. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 when comparison was made in WT mice. #P < 0.05 and ##P < 0.01 when comparison was made between WT mice and Nrf2−/− mice.

Figure 4 Effect of ISL treatment on NF-κB and Nrf2 in pancreatic tissue in WT and Nrf2−/− mice after SAP. (A, B) Protein expression of Nrf2 in pancreatic tissue of the different groups after SAP. GAPDH was used as the loading control and for band density normalization. (C) Statistical graph of Nrf2 and GAPDH protein in the different groups. (D, E) Immunofluorescence staining for Nrf2 (green) and DAPI (blue) in the different groups. (F, G) Protein expression of NF-κB and IκB in pancreatic tissue in the different groups after SAP. GAPDH was used as the loading control and for band density normalization. (H, I) Statistical graph of NF-κB, IκB, and GAPDH protein in the different groups. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. n = 5 per group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001 when comparison was made in WT mice. #P < 0.05 when comparison was made between WT mice and Nrf2−/− mice.

Figure 5 Effect of ISL treatment on NF-κB and Nrf2 in intestinal tissue in WT and Nrf2−/− mice after SAP. (A, B) Protein expression of Nrf2 in intestinal tissue in the different groups after SAP. GAPDH was used as the loading control and for band density normalization. (C) Statistical graph of Nrf2 and GAPDH protein in the different groups. (D, E) Protein expression of NF-κB and IκB in pancreatic tissue in the different groups after SAP. GAPDH was used as the loading control and for band density normalization. (F, G) Statistical graph of NF-κB and IκB. GAPDH protein in the different groups. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. n = 5 per group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001 when comparison was made in WT mice. #P < 0.05 when comparison was made between WT mice and Nrf2−/− mice.

Figure 6 Effect of Nrf2 deletion on maintenance of intestinal barrier integrity after SAP. (A, B) Protein expression of P-120-catenin and occludin in pancreatic and intestinal tissue in the different groups after SAP. GAPDH was used as the loading control and for band density normalization. (C, D) Statistical graph of P-120-catenin, occludin, and GAPDH protein in the different groups. (E–H) Immunofluorescence staining for P-120-catenin (green), occludin (green), and DAPI (blue) in the different groups. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. n = 5 per group. *P < 0.05 and ***P < 0.001 when comparison was made in WT mice. #P < 0.05 when comparison was made between WT mice and Nrf2−/− mice.
