A Corrigendum on
Dihydroartemisinin Induces Growth Arrest and Overcomes Dexamethasone Resistance in Multiple Myeloma
By Chen Y, Li R, Zhu Y, Zhong S, Qian J, Yang D, Jurczyszyn A, Beksac M, Gu C and Yang Y (2020). Front. Oncol. 10:767. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2020.00767
In the original article, there was an unsatisfied WB result in Figure 3 as published. Dr. Tulipa Fosteriana pointed that in Figure 3C, the 2 loading controls bared striking resemblance, although they looked somehow different in vertical dimension and the image quality was also quite poor, which were posted on PubPeer. According to the valuable suggestions, we have provided all the original data to Frontiers Office to prove the authenticity. There was no error in the original data, however, based on the recommendation from Editorial Office, we replaced the previous figure with the repeated “C of Figure 3” with high quality. The corrected Figure 3 appears below.
FIGURE 3
Figure 3 DHA induces caspase-mediated apoptosis in MM cell lines. (A–C) The protein levels of caspase-3, PARP, Bcl-2, and Bad were determined by western blotting in MM cells. The results showed that caspase-3 and PARP were increased after 12 h, while Bcl-2 and Bad were decreased after 12 h.
The authors state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
