In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 4 as published. Because of our carelessness in combining images, we put the wrong images on Figures 4C and E. The corrected Figure 4 appears below.
Figure 4

ECSW improve the adhesive, migratory, and tube formation capacity of EPCs after hypoxic injury by activating PI3K/Akt/eNOS signaling pathway. (A,C,E) Representative images of EPCs adhesive, migratory, and tube formation in each group under a microscope. (A,E) Scale bar = 100 μm; (C) Scale bar = 200 μm. (B,D,F) Quantitative analysis of the adhesive, migratory, and tube formation of EPCs in each group. Data are presented as mean ± SD, N = 3. *P < 0.05 vs. group control, **P < 0.05 vs. group hypoxia, #P < 0.05 vs. group hypoxia + ECSW.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
