<p>In the published article, there was an error in <bold>Figure&#xa0;10</bold> (C, D) TEM images of HA-ThCs-NDV NFs at 200nm and 500nm respectively and <bold>Figure&#xa0;13</bold> Change in morphology of treated HeLa cells with pure NDV and HA-ThCs-NDV in time and dose-dependent manner as published.</p>
<p>1- The image in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f10"><bold>Figure&#xa0;10</bold></xref> (C, D) part highly resembles/overlaps with image of same nanoformulation from our own previous publication in Frontiers in Pharmacology, that occurred due to wrong tagging during data analysis (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://doi.org/10.3389/fphar.2022.1073004">https://doi.org/10.3389/fphar.2022.1073004</ext-link>) - Figure&#xa0;7B.</p>
<p>2- The image in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f13"><bold>Figure&#xa0;13</bold></xref> of panel 10 ug/ml of pure NDV-24 hrs and HA-ThCs-NDV-24 hrs is incorrect as wrong slide was provided and the image highly resembles the image from our previous publication in Frontiers in Pharmacology, (<uri xlink:href="https://doi.org/10.3389/fphar.2022.1073004">https://doi.org/10.3389/fphar.2022.1073004</uri>) - and Figure&#xa0;14a.

<p>The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. This error occurred as we were working on both studies (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://doi.org/10.3389/fphar.2022.1073004">https://doi.org/10.3389/fphar.2022.1073004</ext-link> and <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2023.1175535">https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2023.1175535</ext-link>) simultaneously and some of the data/slides were wrongly tagged by students working on the project.</p>
