Correction to: Arch. Pharm. Res. (2016) 39:240–248 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12272-015-0666-8

Unfortunately, there are some errors in Fig. 1b and Fig. 3a of the article.

In Fig. 1b, invasion images of REV and REV + NE are inadvertently duplicated during final figure assembly.

In Fig. 3a, the β-actin image is mistakenly duplicated with that in Fig. 3d.

The corrected Figs. 1 and 3 are shown in this erratum.

REV inhibits NE-induced ovarian cancer cell invasion. a Cell viability assay was analyzed as MTT. The serum-starved cells were treated with REV for 24 h. b The serum-starved SKOV-3 and PA-1 cells were respectively pretreated with 25 and 10 μM REV for 1 h. Invasion assay against serum-free media with or without 10 μM NE (*P < 0.05 vs. vehicle-treated control, #P < 0.05 vs. NE treatment only). The vehicle of REV and NE were ethanol and H2O, respectively and used as controls. c Invasive capacity measured using Matrigel 3D colony assay. The SKOV-3 cell line was grown in Matrigel for 10 days. Images original magnification b ×200 and c ×100; scale bar, 100 μm

REV inhibits NE-induced hTERT, Src, HIF-1α expression. a The serum-starved SKOV-3 and PA-1 cells were respectively pretreated with 25 and 10 μM REV for 1 h, followed by stimulation with 10 μM NE for 24 h. Lysates were collected and analyzed for hTERT by immunoblotting. b The cells were transfected with hTERT and serum-starved cells were treated with 25 μM REV for 24 h. Lysates were collected and analyzed for hTERT, Slug and E-cadherin by immunoblotting. c Invasion assay of transfected SKOV-3 cells with vector or hTERT against serum-free media with or without 25 μM REV (***P < 0.001 vs. vector and ##P < 0.01 vs. hTERT with vehicle-treated control). d The serum-starved SKOV-3 and PA-1 cells were respectively pretreated with 25 and 10 μM REV for 1 h, followed by stimulation with 10 μM NE for 24 h (upper) and 2 h (low). Lysates were collected and analyzed for hTERT, p-Src and HIF-1α by immunoblotting

The authors apologize for these errors and any confusion it may have caused.
