Erratum: Targeting ceramide synthase 6–dependent metastasis-prone phenotype in lung cancer cells Citation for this expression of concern (Journal of Clinical Investigation (2019) 129:8 (3464) Doi:10.1172/JCI131245)

Abstract

The corresponding author recently notified the JCI that the patient data presented in Figure 1B were not correct. Analysis of the correct patient data set does not show a significant difference in CERS6expression in human lung adenocarcinomas with positive invasive growth (definite) compared with those with negligible invasive growth or without invasive growth (focal/none). The Editors have requested an institutional investigation into this matter, and we will inform our readers of the outcome when the investigation is complete.
