Subsequently to the publication of the above article, the authors have realized that, on p. 390, the data selected for the siRNA‑1 and siRNA‑2 experiments for the ACHN and 786-O cell lines concerning both the invasion and the migration assays in Fig. 4B were selected inappropriately. Furthermore, after having inspected the published version of Fig. 5, the authors have realized that, for the immunofluorescence experiments shown in Fig. 5D, the first 'Merged' pictures for the first two columns of the ACHN cell line were accidentally published in the wrong order. The corrected versions of Figs. 4, and 5, including all the correct data for Figs. 4B and 5D, are shown on the next three pages. The authors confirm that these data continue to support the main conclusions presented in their paper, and are grateful to the Editor of International Journal of Oncology for granting them this opportunity to publish a Corrigendum. They also apologize to the readership for any inconvenience caused. [International Journal of Oncology 53: 384‑394, 2018; DOI: 10.3892/ijo.2018.4395].
