ERRATUM: EXTRACELLULAR SUPEROXIDE DISMUTASE
ATTENUATES LUNG INJURY AFTER HEMORRHAGE
 |
ARTICLE |
To the Editor :
Several errors were noted in our article (1). The F2 isoprostanes values were
reversed; when correctly rounded, they should read 2.0 ± 0.2 µg/lung for extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) transgenic mice and 3.4 ± 0.3 µg/lung for wild-type mice. The relative absorbance for the nuclear factor
kappa B should read 1.3 ± 0.1 in the EC-SOD transgenic mice and 2.5 ± 0.3 for the wild-type mice. In the sixth paragraph of the results section, we wish
to change the sentence, "In the EC-SOD transgene positive mice, there was a
smaller increase in isoprostanes after hemorrhage . . ." to read "In the EC-SOD transgenic mice, lung isoprostanes were not statistically different from
unhemorrhaged controls." We do not feel that these changes substantially alter the conclusions of this manuscript.
We regret any inconvenience that this may have caused.
