Abstract

Correction for ‘Metabolically engineered bacteria as light-controlled living therapeutics for anti-angiogenesis tumor therapy’ by Xingang Liu et al., Mater. Horiz., 2021, 8, 1454–1460, https://doi.org/10.1039/D0MH01582B.


The authors regret that an error resulted in the inclusion of an incorrect image for Fig. 2B (−Light) in the published article. The corrected image for Fig. 2 is shown in this notice.
image file: d6mh90022d-f2.tif
Fig. 2 (A) Live and dead assays of Salmonella stained with different concentrations of MA with or without white light irradiation (30 mW cm−2, 10 min). (B) Field emission scanning electron microscopy images of SV@MA (20 µM) with or without light irradiation (30 mW cm−2, 10 min). (C) DNA release studies of Salmonella stained with different concentrations of MA with light irradiation (30 mW cm−2, 10 min). (D) Confocal fluorescence images of 4T1 cells incubated with SV@MA for 4 h. (E) TEM images showing the intracellular position of SV@MA in the ultrathin cell slices of 4T1 cells. (F) Western blot analysis of VEGFR2 expression in 4T1 cells after different transfection treatment. Light irradiation: 30 mW cm−2, 10 min. (G) Quantitative analysis of VEGFR2 protein expression in 4T1 cells after different treatment.

In addition, incorrect images were shown in the Supplementary Information (SI) for Fig. S17 (SV(+L), 1 d) and S21 (Heart, SE@MA and SV@MA). The SI available online has now been updated to show the correct images.

The authors confirm that these errors do not affect the conclusions of the article.

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