Correction to: Cell Death and Disease https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-018-1282-6, published online 17 January 2019

The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake in Fig. 6d. The authors pasted a wrong image from Group Twist1 + shTP (TP) for Group TP (Twist1). The coding for these two groups were similar, which made the authors paste a confused image before. This is a representative picture of immunohistochemistry. We examined the original data carefully. The statistical figures (Fig. 6e) showed the statistical results of the scores (average score of 4 visual fields in each section) of 4 pathological sections in each group. There is no problem with the data in the statistical figures. Although this does not affect the final conclusion, the authors apologize for the mistake. The revised figure can be found below.
