Corrected-article in J Cancer, Volume 11, 2068

Following the publication of the above article, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that, for the Figure 2A the representative images selected for the 'α-SMA' in NPC patients with IL-6^low CD73^lowphenotype and 'vimentin' in NPC patients with IL-6^high CD73^high phenotype were found to be overlapping. After having consulted our original data files, we realized that the Figure 2A had been inadvertently assembled incorrectly. We wish to emphasize that the corrections made to the Figure 2A do not affect the overall conclusions reported in the paper. We really regret that the error went unnoticed prior to the publication of this article, and we are grateful to the Editor of the Journal of Cancer for allowing us the opportunity to publish this erratum. All the authors agree to the publication of this erratum, and Zhang's group also apologizes for any inconvenience this has caused to the reviewers of this article and readers of the journal.

The revised version of Figure 2A, presenting the correct image for the 'vimentin' in NPC patients with IL-6^high CD73^high phenotype, is shown below.

 Figure 2
