closePublisher's Note: Typographical Errors in Figure 5 and the Text
Posted by PLOS_Pathogens on 14 Dec 2013 at 00:00 GMT
There is a typographical error in Figure 5, part D. The graph on the left contains the duplicate label of "CD8+ T cells". The correct label is "CD4+ T cells".
The following passages contain incorrect citations to Figure 5 in the published article. The correct references are given at the end of the passages:
- "In contrast to splenocytes from uninfected animals, splenocytes from infected mice showed an expansion in the percentages of CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells that expressed IFN-γ as well as in the absolute numbers of IFN-γ-producing T cells (Figure 5B). The percentages and numbers of IFN-γ+ T cells were similar in B6 and PKR−/− mice (Figure 5B)."
The correct reference is "(Figure 5B-C)" in both citations of this passage.
- "Similarly, the percentages of IFN-γ+ CD4+ and CD8+ T cells as well as the absolute numbers of these cells were comparable in brain mononuclear cells from infected B6 and PKR−/− mice (Figure 5B) (p>0.2)."
The correct citation in this passage is "(Figure 5D-E)".
- "The anti-T. gondii IgG antibodies titers were 1:25,600 in both groups of mice and the O.D. values (450 nm) at a serum dilution of 1:200 were comparable (Figure 5C)."
The correct citation in this passage is "(Figure 5F)".
