Corrigendum
In the Articles in Press version of our manuscript, Figure 7A and 7C are inappropriately presented. In Figure 7A, after measuring the density of TIMP-3 bands in sample lanes as described in Materials & Methods, we cut off individual lanes in order to remove empty lanes and still-stained edges of some sample lanes. However, we adjusted each line to be equal in size when we processed the photographs. We acknowledge that such manipulation is not appropriate and so we show here photographs of these gels as they were originally obtained, that is; irregular in size.
In the Articles in Press version of Figure 7C, we performed electrophoresis of PCR products from one RNA sample obtained at each indicated time point in triplicate in one agarose gel. We selected a band with the most representative expression from the same sample at each time points, and combined these selected bands in one panel. However, when we processed photographs on PC, some of RNA samples for G3PDH PCR were not matched for those used for TIMP-3 PCR. We, therefore include here the correctly matched PCR results of G3PDH for those of TIMP-3 obtained from the same RNA samples.
The authors sincerely regret these errors and misrepresentations which did not alter the conclusions reached in this study.
The revised Figures 7A and 7C and revised legends are included here and will appear in the final version of our manuscript.
