Following publication of the original article [1], an error was identified in Figure 5 and Table 1, specifically:

  • Figure 5c - the Hoechst image of 5637 si-PANDAR group was misplaced

  • Table 1 - the number of high and low expression in no lymph nodes metastasis were inadvertently misplaced, and the statistical significance remained unchanged after reanalyzing the data of Table 1

The corrected Figure 5 and Table 1 are given here. The correction does not affect the conclusions of the article.

Effects of down-regulation or up-regulation of PANDAR on cell apoptosis. Cell apoptosis was determined by both ELISA assay and Hoechst 33,342 staining assay. Induced cell apoptosis by silencing PANDAR was observed in bladder cancer 5637 cells, SW780 cells and T24 cells (a, b and c). Suppressed cell apoptosis by overexpressing PANDAR was observed in bladder cancer 5637 cells, SW780 cells and T24 cells (d, e and f). Data are shown as mean ± SD
