A corrigendum on
Tubeimoside 1 Acts as a Chemotherapeutic Synergist via Stimulating Macropinocytosis

by Gong, X., Sun, R., Gao, Z., Han, W., Liu, Y., Zhao, L., Jing, L., Yao, X., and Sun X. (2018). Front. Pharmacol. 9:1044. doi:10.3389/fphar.2018.01044

In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 6 as published.

FIGURE 6

FIGURE 6. Chloroquine suppress TBM1-induced vacuolation and cell death in CRC cells. (A) SW480 were treated with 8 μM TBM1 for different time or starvation or 1 μM rapamycin for 24 h. Protein expression of LC3-I and LC3-II was detected by Western blotting. Beta-actin were served as loading control. (B) SW480 cells were pre-cultured with or without chloroquine (CQ) (10 μM) for 1 h before exposure to TBM1 for 24 h. LC3 processing was assessed using Western blotting analysis. (C) After treatment with SW480 cells for different time as (B), morphological changes were observed by phase-contrast microscopy. (D) SW480 cells were pre-cultured with or without 3-MA (3 mM) for 1 h before exposure to TBM1 for different time. Morphological changes were observed using phase-contrast microscopy. (E) The number of vacuoles of the same cultures as (B) for 48 h was counted from three different imagines. (F) Cell viability was measured by MTT assay (n = 5). #p < 0.01.

The second image of bottom panel of Figure 6D was misused. The corrected Figure 6 appears below.

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.
