A Corrigendum on
Biomarkers of GH deficiency identified in untreated and GH-treated Pit-1 mutant mice

By Al-Samerria S, Xu H, Diaz-Rubio ME, Phelan J, Su C, Ma K, Newen A, Li K, Yamada S, Negron AL, Wondisford F and Radovick S (2025) Front. Endocrinol. 16:1539797. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2025.1539797

There was a mistake in Figure 5 as published. Figure 5 was incorrect and mistakenly showed the same content as Figure 6, rather than the correct figure. The corrected Figure 5 and its caption appear below.

Figure 5
The image contains nine panels of metabolomic data visualizations. Panels (a), (b), and (c) are principal component analysis (PCA) plots comparing metabolic profiles among wild-type (WT), mutant (Mut), and GH-treated groups in male mice. Panels (d), (e), and (f) are volcano plots displaying differentially expressed metabolites, with the x-axis showing log₂ fold change and the y-axis showing –log₁₀(p-value). Panels (g), (h), and (i) are heatmaps depicting metabolite expression across experimental groups, using color gradients to indicate relative abundance. Each panel is labeled for clarity.

Figure 5. Comparative metabolomic analysis to identify GHD Biomarkers in male mice. This figure examines metabolomic profiles under different GH conditions to identify GHD biomarkers and GH treatment effects. PCA plots (a–c) show metabolic distinctions: (a) GH sufficient (WT) vs. GHD (Mut), (b) GHD (Mut) vs. GH supplemented (Mut + GH), and (c) GH sufficient (WT) vs. GH excess (WT + GH). Volcano plots (d–f) display differentially expressed metabolites based on Log2 fold change and p-values for the same comparisons. Heatmaps (g–i) illustrate key metabolite expression across groups.
