Abstract

Correction for ‘Photodynamic antitumor activity of aggregation-induced emission luminogens as chemosensitizers for paclitaxel by concurrent induction of apoptosis and autophagic cell death’ by Jia Wang et al., Mater. Chem. Front., 2021, 5, 3448–3457, https://doi.org/10.1039/D1QM00089F.


The authors regret that Fig. 2E was incorrect in the original article. The image showing the western blot data for p27 was duplicated in error. The corrected version of Fig. 2 is provided below.

Fig. 2 TPE-Py photodynamically inhibits cell growth and induces cell cycle arrest in GC cells. (A) Cells were treated with different levels of white light (1, 5 lumens; 2, 50 lumens; 3, 150 lumens; 4, 350 lumens; 5, 1000 lumens) for 2 min. After 48 h, the cell viability was determined by MTS assay. (B) Cells were incubated with various concentrations of TPE-Py for 2 h, and then treated with or without 2 level white light. After 48 h, the cell viability was measured by MTS assay. (C) Representative images of colonies formed after treatment with 5 μM TPE-Py in the presence or absence of 2 level white light. (D) Cell cycle analysis of 5 μM TPE-Py-treated cells for 24 h in the presence or absence of 2 level white light by flow cytometry. (E) Representative immunoblots showed the effect of 5 μM TPE-Py in the presence or absence of 2 level white light on Cyclin B, Cyclin D, Cyclin E, p27 and p21. The results are expressed as mean ± SD of three independent experiments. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
