In this article Fig. 6C showed a lot of band results of Western blotting assays, that have been mistakenly re-used in the GAPDH band of the A549 group as an internal reference Histone for SPCA-1 nuclear proteins and further quantified the relative levels of β-catenin.

Different internal references may lead to different analysis results. So, we traced back the original bands and found the results of three independent replicate experiments performed to detect the expression of β-catenin and corresponding Histone after nuclear protein extraction in SPCA-1 cells. The relative levels of β-catenin were also re-quantified.

Fortunately, this correction did not affect the statistical differences in the levels of β-catenin between groups.
