Abstract
Correction for ‘Nanosheet-pore topographical titanium substrates: a biophysical regulator of the fate of mesenchymal stem cells’ by Kui Xu et al., J. Mater. Chem. B, 2016, 4, 1797–1810, https://doi.org/10.1039/C5TB02391B.
The authors regret errors in Fig. 6B, 7A, 8A and 9A in the published article which occurred during the manuscript revision process.
The corrected Fig. 6B, 7A, 8A and 9A are shown here (the captions remain unchanged). The authors declare that these errors do not impact the overall findings and conclusions of the article.

| Fig. 2 (A) representative fluorescence images of MSCs cultured on different substrates (scale bar, 200 μm). | ||

| Fig. 3 ALP staining of MSCs cultured on different substrates and TCPS with normal medium (NM) and osteoinductive medium (OM) for 4 and 7 days (scale bar, 1 mm). | ||

In Fig. 6B the panel for M-TNSs Nuclei was incorrect and has been updated.
In Fig. 7A the panels for 1D L-TNSs, 4D S-TNSs, 7D Ti and 7D M-TNSs were incorrect and have been updated.
In Fig. 8A the panels for 4 days NM TCPS and 7 days NM Ti were incorrect and have been updated.
An impurity is visible on the right-hand side of some of the panels. This was present on the microscope lens when the data was collected and does not affect the results presented in Fig. 8A.
In Fig. 9A the panels for NM S-TNSs and OM S-TNSs were incorrect and have been updated.
An independent expert has viewed the corrected figures and confirmed that they are consistent with the discussions and conclusions presented.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
