A corrigendum on
In the original article, there was an error in the wording concerning the production of cytokines.
A correction has been made to the section Results, Subsection CCGAD65 Peptide Elicits CD4+ T Cells with a Unique Phenotype and Cytolytic Properties, Paragraph 2:
The phenotype at resting state, 14 days after last stimulation with CCGAD65-loaded APCs, was CD3 + CD4 + CD8 − CD25 + CD44 + CD62L − CD127 − CD27 − CD28 −, indicative of an effector memory phenotype. Some cells were positive for T-Bet and/or GATA-3, but all were negative for Foxp3. The production of cytokines was essentially Il-4 and low IFN-γ. This distinct phenotype was conserved even when cells were repeatedly stimulated in vitro with the WTGAD65 peptide, suggesting a terminal differentiation. By contrast, the phenotype expressed by CD4 + T cells generated in a similar manner from mice immunized with the WTGAD65 peptide was CD3 + CD4 + CD8 − CD25 + CD44 + CD62L − CD127 high CD27 high CD28 −(Figure 2B; Figures S3 and S4 in Supplementary Material). Altogether, this indicates that cells generated with a thioreductase-containing peptide are terminally differentiated effector T cells with a memory phenotype.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
