  • Figure 2E: the panels for nab-P and AP appear to partially overlap.

  • Figure 3E: the panels for Bax/Group-1 and Bax/Group-3 appear to partially overlap.

  • Figure 3E: the panels for Bax/Group-2 and bcl-2/Control group appear to partially overlap.

  • Figure 3E: the panel for CD31/Group-1 appears to partially overlap with the panels for CD31/Group-3 and MMP-2/Group-2.

  • Figure 3E: the panel for CD31/Group-3 appears to partially overlap with the panels for MMP-2/Group-1 and MMP-2/Group-2.

  • Figure 3E: the panel for CD31/Group-3 appears to partially overlap with the panel for MMP-2/Group-1.
