Correction: Hepatitis C virus core protein down-regulates p21 Waf1/Cip1 and inhibits curcumin-induced apoptosis through microRNA-345 targeting in human hepatoma cells (PLoS ONE (2013) 8:4 (e61089) DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0061089)

Abstract

In Fig 4B, the 5 th and 7 th fluorescent microscopy images for HA-Core191 + miR-345 inhibitor (10nM) and HA-Core173 + miR-345 inhibitor (10nM) are duplicates of each other. The authors have provided a new set of cell images form the same experiment done at a different time for Fig 4B. Please see the correct Fig 4 and its caption below. The authors would like to clarify that for Fig 3C, although the last two FACS Calibur images appear to have identical sections, these images are acquired directly from the computer machine in their original form. They have provided the images in S1 Dataset.
