The original version of this Article contained errors in Fig. 5a, Fig. 7g and in Supplementary Fig. 27. In the error in Fig. 5a the representative H&E staining images of heart and lung in the control group were inadvertently duplicated from the Cu5.4O USNPs group. In the error in Fig. 7g the representative image of the Cu5.4 O USNPs-treated normal mice group was inadvertently duplicated from the Cu5.4O USNPs-treated AKI mice group. In the error in Supplementary Fig. 27, the representative fluorescent images of kidney tissues in the Cu5.4 O USNPs-treated normal mice group were from the Cu5.4O USNPs-treated AKI mice group. The updated version contains the correct images. This has been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
