Subsequently to the publication of the above article, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that two pairs of the culture plate images in Fig. 4A-C on p. 60 appeared to be the same, although the images were shown in different orientations; moreover, the 'NC/0 and DEX+miR132' and 'DEX and miR132' pairings of images in the scratch-wound assay experiments shown in Fig. 4B also appeared to be overlapping, such that these were apparently derived from the same original source where the results of differently performed experiments were intended to have been portrayed. After re‑examining their original data, the authors have realized that some of the data in Fig. 4A and B were inadvertently assembled incorrectly. The revised version of Fig. 4, showing all the correct data for the culture plate images in Fig. 4A-C (specifically, the images fifth along on the right for Fig. 4B and C have been revised) and the correct images for 'NC/0' and 'DEX/0' in Fig. 4D is shown on on the next page. The authors are grateful to the Editor of International Journal of Oncology for allowing them this opportunity to publish a Corrigendum, and all the authors agree with its publication. Furthermore, the authors apologize to the readership for any inconvenience caused. [International Journal of Oncology 54: 53‑64, 2019; DOI: 10.3892/ijo.2018.4616].
