Correction to: METTL5 promotes cell proliferation, invasion, and migration by up-regulating Toll-like receptor 8 expression in colorectal cancer

Abstract

Correction to “METTL5 promotes cell proliferation, invasion, and migration by up-regulating Toll-like receptor 8 expression in colorectal cancer” in World J Gastrointest Oncol 2024; 16(5): 2006-2017, published by Kong LS, Tao R, Li YF, Wang WB, and Zhao X. In this article, we added the correct images.

Key Words: METTL5; TLR8; colorectal cancer; Correction

Core Tip: After examining all the images and data, we found that one panel in figure 1I was very blurry, which was related to our incorrect image assembly at the beginning, which could have affected the cell count. Although it did not affect the final result, we would like to publish a correction to avoid any questions from readers in the future. We believe this is the best way to handle it.

TO THE EDITOR

We are very grateful to have the opportunity to publish our research results[1] in World J Gastrointest Oncol, which is an encouragement and recognition for us. Unfortunately, however, after examining all the images and data, we found that one panel in figure 1I was very blurry, which was related to our incorrect image assembly at the beginning, which could have affected the cell count (Figure 1). Although it did not affect the final result, we would like to publish a correction to avoid any questions from readers in the future. We believe this is the best way to handle it.

Figure 1 METTL5 was associated with colorectal cancer prognosis and the biological behavior of colorectal cancer cells in vitro.
