This Article contains errors where n values were omitted from some of the Figure and Table legends. In the legend of Figure 1, “(b) Effect of HST (1, 10, 100 μg/mL) on the scratch-induced migration of HOKs over time. (c) Extent of the scratch-induced migration of HOKs treated with HST (1, 10, 100 μg/mL) for 72 h calculated as the ratio of vehicle [confluence of HOKs (%) in wound area treated with HST/that treated with vehicle]. (d) Cell viability in HOKs treated with vehicle or HST (1, 10, 100 μg/mL) for 72 h. Data are expressed as the ratio of vehicle at 72 h.” should read: “(b) Effects of HST (1, 10, 100 μg/mL) on the scratch-induced migration of HOKs over time (n = 12–13).

In the legend of Figure 6, “HSC-4 (a), SCC-25 (b), DLD-1 (c), and MKN-45 (d) cell lines were treated with HST for 72 h, then cell growth was measured using Cell Counting Kit-8. HSC-4 (e) and SCC-25 (f) cells were treated with HST (1, 10, and 100 μg/mL) for 72 h, then the area occupied by cancer cells on the scratched area was quantified using IncyCyte scratch wound cell migration software (ESSEN BioScience).” should read: “HSC-4 (a), SCC-25 (b), DLD-1 (c) and MKN-45 (d) cell lines were treated with HST for 72 h, then cell growth were measured using Cell Counting Kit-8 (n = 9). HSC-4 (e, n = 8–16) and SCC-25 (f, n = 3–7) cells were treated with HST (1, 10, 100 μg/mL) for 72 h, then the area occupied by cancer cells on the scratched area were quantified using IncuCyte scratch wound cell migration software (ESSEN BioScience).”
