Correction: Let-7b-5p inhibits breast cancer cell growth and metastasis via repression of hexokinase 2-mediated aerobic glycolysis

Key Points

To clarify previous findings regarding let-7b-5p's role in breast cancer cell growth by correcting figure errors.
Correction of figures showing cell growth and migration processes in MDA-MB-231 and ZR75-1 cell lines.
Review and revision of results based on figure preparation mistakes.
The errors in figures do not alter the overall conclusions regarding let-7b-5p's effects on cancer cells.
Let-7b-5p continues to be associated with the inhibition of hexokinase 2-mediated aerobic glycolysis.

Abstract

Upon a thorough review of the published content, we recently identified mistakes in Fig. 5C, Fig. 5D and Fig. S2D due to oversights during the figure preparation process.Specifically, we mistakenly used the same Wound healing in MDA-MB-231 and ZR75-1 cells in Fig. 5C.The transwell for (3) and (4) in ZR75-1 cells in Fig. 5D was mistakenly placed.Additionally, the transwell for (1) was mistakenly placed in Fig. S2D.Results section are replaced as below.These corrections do not affect the results and conclusions of this study.We deeply apologize for any confusion or inconvenience that this may have caused.
