Correction to: Cell Death and Disease (2025)16:120 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-025-07452-z, published online 21 February 2025

In this article here are three instances in this article where “NCOR2” should be corrected to “NCOA2.” The corresponding sentences should be revised as follows:

  1. 1.

    Title: “HNF4A mitigates sepsis-associated lung injury by upregulating NCOA2/GR/STAB1 axis and promoting macrophage polarization towards M2 phenotype”

  2. 2.

    The last sentence of the abstract: “It is suggested that one of the regulatory mechanisms involved in this association may be the NCOA2/GR/STAB1 axis.”

  3. 3.

    Discussion in paragraph 5, following reference [42]: “In the current study, we observed that HNF4A promoted the expression of STAB1, while NCOA2 or GR silencing inhibited the STAB1 expression raised by HNF4A.”

The original article has been corrected.
