Following the publication of the above article, the authors realized that, in Fig. 1D on p. 7363, the data panel selected for the ‘0.5 mM Succinate’ group was duplicated in Fig. 1B (Control) in another article of theirs published in FASEB J (“α-Ketoglutarate prevents skeletal muscle protein degradation and muscle atrophy through PHD3/ADRB2 pathway”: doi: 10.1096/fj.201700670R) due to the fact that they had inadvertently confused the layout of the two figures. The authors apologize for this error. Secondly, in terms of the quantification of the blots shown in Fig. 2A, β-actin was not in fact used as a loading control; the phosphoproteins were normalized against the levels of the relative total protein, and the layout of Fig. 2A has been revised to reflect this (note that the the figure legend for Fig. 2 has also been revised: The last sentence no longer reads, “β-actin was used as a loading control.”).
The revised versions of Figs. 1 and 2 are shown on the next page. Note that these errors did not affect the results or the main conclusions reported in the study, and no corrections were required either to the descriptions in the text or to the histograms shown in these figures. All the authors approve of the publication of this corrigendum, and the authors are grateful to the Editor of Molecular Medicine Reports for allowing them the opportunity to publish this. The authors regret their oversight in allowing these errors to be included in the paper, and apologize to the readership for any inconvenience caused.
