A Corrigendum on
Bioengineered Platforms for Chronic Wound Infection Studies: How Can We Make Them More Human-Relevant?
by Kadam, S., Nadkarni, S., Lele, J., Sakhalkar, S., Mokashi, P., and Kaushik, K. S. (2019) Front. Bioeng. Biotechnol. 7:418. doi: 10.3389/fbioe.2019.00418
In the original article, there was a mistake in the legend for Figure 2 as published. The legend incorrectly cites a reference for Figure 2(A) as “modified from.” The figure was in fact made by the authors. The correct legend appears below.
Figure 2. (A) Typical representation of the chronic wound bed microenvironment. (B) Key features of the chronic wound bed-capillary interface. From a bioengineering standpoint, the microenvironment can be represented by a two-compartment system, where the upper compartment consists of the “infected wound bed” with host cells, matrix and microbial biofilms and the lower compartment represents the capillary interface (endothelial cells) with immune components. (C) A simplified representation of key interactions between chronic wound biofilms and other key components of the chronic wound microenvironment, which can be suitably dissected on human-relevant bioengineered platform.
Additionally, there was a mistake in Table 1 as published. The last row of the table had an incorrect placement of the figures. The corrected Table 1 appears below.
Table 1. Key features of current bioengineered platforms, in vitro and ex vivo, developed for chronic wound infection studies.
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.
