Correction to: Experimental & Molecular Medicine https://doi.org/10.1038/s12276-022-00840-x, published online 02 September 2022
After online publication of this article, the authors noticed an error in the Fig. 5h section.
During figure assembly, the image corresponding to the siAXL#1 condition in Fig. 5h was inadvertently replaced with the siScrambled image from Fig. 5e.

The correct siAXL#1 image was obtained from the same experiment performed under identical conditions. Original data are available upon request.
This error does not affect the quantitative analyses, statistical results, or the conclusions of the manuscript. The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused.
The original article has been corrected.
