The original version of this Article contained an error in the Discussion section. Additionally, the Reference, which is listed below as Reference 44, was omitted. As a result,

“Most importantly, a cross-comparison of these cell types between organs has not previously been given.”

now reads:

“Last year, by comparing the transcriptome of human epithelial cells in nasal, bronchial, and epididymal samples, Paranjapye et al. described conservation of ionocytes between these tissues44. However, a complementing cross-comparison of these cell types between other organs has not previously been given.”
