A corrigendum on

Ionizing Particle Radiation as a Modulator of Endogenous Bone Marrow Cell Reprogramming: Implications for Hematological Cancers
by Muralidharan S, Sasi SP, Zuriaga MA, Hirschi KK, Porada CD, Coleman MA, et al. Front Oncol (2015) 5:231. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2015.00231

In the paper titled “Ionizing Particle Radiation as a Modulator of Endogenous Bone Marrow Cell Reprogramming: Implications for Hematological Cancers,” there was secretarial error made at our end in “Figure 1,” which should be corrected. At some point of the submission in Figure 1, A and B were disarranged in the slide. No other correction is needed as the text and figure legends are correct.

FIGURE 1

Figure 1. E-MPP and L-MPP cell numbers are downregulated by 56Fe- and 1H-IR but recover to control levels by 40 weeks post-IR. Effect of full-body single dose of proton (1H) at 0.5 Gy, 1 GeV and iron (56Fe) at 0.15 Gy, 1 GeV/nucleon of ionizing radiation (IR) on survival of multipotent progenitor cell populations was examined. The survival of (A) E-MPPs and (B) L-MPPs in the BM after particle IR in C57BL/6NT mice were determined at 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 28, and 40 weeks post-IR. Total BM-derived mononuclear cells were triple-stained with FITC-labeled RAM34 antibody (that consists of CD34, c-kit, and Sca1 antibodies), PE-Cy7-AC133, and PE-hematopoietic lineage cocktail (CD3e, Ly-6G/Ly-6C, CD11b, CD45R/B220, TER-119), then sorted by FASC for (A) E-MPPs (CD34+/c-kit+/Sca-1+/AC133+/Lin) and (B) L-MPPs (CD34+/c-kit+/Sca-1+/AC133/Lin). Percentage changes in cell numbers were calculated relative to control sham irradiated mice, which was set to 100% for each time point. Solid lines represent mean ± SEM (n = 6/group) for 1H-IR (solid blue lines) and 56Fe-IR (solid red lines). “*” represents statistically significant differences compared to control with p < 0.05.
