Suppressive effect of Pim-1 siRNA on the cell invasion in SACC cells. A. Crystal violet staining images of invasive SACC-83 and SACC-LM cells after Pim-1 siRNA transfection for 72 h. B. Quantification of the number of invaded SACC-83/SACC-LM in control siRNA and Pim-1 siRNA groups, respectively. Results were shownas mean ± SD. p < 0.05, *Pim-1 siRNA group compared with control siRNA group

Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of Pim-1 and RUNX3 in ACC. A. Negative Pim-IHC staining in ACC. B. Positive Pim-1 IHC staining in ACC. C. Negative RUNX3 IHC staining in ACC. D. Positive RUNX3 IHC staining in ACC. Magnificant factor: ×400.

The authors state that the image in Fig. 9C had been taken from the negative Pim-1 staining sample group in error. The corrected figure displays a representative image from the negative RUNX3 staining group.

This correction does not change the result, interpretation, and conclusions of the study.
