In the original publication [1], an error was detected in the Western blot image corresponding to the β-actin used as a loading control for CYP27A1 (Figure 3A). Due to human error, when preparing the figures of our manuscript, the Western blot image of the LATS protein (Figure 4A) was accidentally also included as the image corresponding to the β-actin used as a loading control for the CYP27A1 protein.

Despite this error, the image does not change the results or conclusions of the manuscript at all, since the densitometric quantification of CYP27A expression (which was shown as a bar graph below the representative Western blot images in the published version of the manuscript) was performed including the densitometric values of the correct β-actin used as a loading control for CYP27A. In the present correction of the manuscript, the correct representative Western blot image of the β-actin used as a CYP27A1 loading control is included in Figure 3A.

It is important to mention that, in the representative Western blot images, only one sample from each experimental group represented is included. On the other hand, to obtain the graph with the values of the densitometric quantification of the expression of CYP27A, the densitometric values from the six samples that conformed in each experimental group were included and analyzed, each of them corrected with the densitometric value of their respective β-actin used as a loading control. As can be seen in the published manuscript, in the description of the results obtained, the analyzed values of the densitometric quantification graph were considered, and, then, the conclusions of the article were made based on these data. Therefore, the scientific conclusions of the published article were not affected by the mentioned human error.

The correct image appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
