Following the publication of the original article [1], errors were identified in the Abstract, Tables 1 and 2, and Figure 3.
The sentence currently reads:
These findings indicate that chicory increases uric acid excretion by intestines, which may be related to the stimulation of intestinal uric acid excretion via down-regulating the mRNA and protein expressions of ABCG2.
The sentence should read:
These findings indicate that chicory increases uric acid excretion by intestines, which may be related to the stimulation of intestinal uric acid excretion via up-regulating the mRNA and protein expressions of ABCG2.
The original article [1] has been corrected.
Location of ABCG2 and effects of chicory on ABCG2 protein expression. a Jejunum of normal rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). b Jejunum of model rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). c Jejunum of benzbromarone rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). d Jejunum of chicory extract high-dose rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). e Jejunum of chicory extract middle-dose rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). f Jejunum of chicory extract low-dose rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). g Ileum of normal rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). h Ileum of model rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). i Ileum of benzbromarone rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). j Ileum of chicory extract high-dose rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). k Ileum of chicory extract middle-dose rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). l Ileum of chicory extract low-dose rat ABCG2 IHC stain (×20 objective lens). Low expression of model group in jejunum and ileum (P < 0.05, P < 0.01 vs. control group slices), which developed heavy stains; inhibition of ABCG2 by chicory (P < 0 .01, P < 0 .01 vs. model group slices)
