Correction: Supramolecular metalloglycodendrimers selectively modulate lectin binding and delivery of Ru(II) complexes into mammalian cells

Abstract

Correction for ‘Supramolecular metalloglycodendrimers selectively modulate lectin binding and delivery of Ru(II) complexes into mammalian cells’ by Harikrishna Bavireddi, et al., Org. Biomol. Chem., 2016, DOI: 10.1039/c6ob01546h. The authors regret that there were errors in Fig. 2. The correct figure is shown below. (i) The binding affinity between different ruthenium complexes 3 to 5 and ConA, PNA and GNA (each point represents the average of three independent experiments). (ii) MTT assay with DC-SIGN HeLa, NIH-3T3 and HepG2 cells after treatment with 2 to 5 (20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 μM) for 48 h. Cells were grown in 96-well plates and the compounds were added at 90% confluence. The results are presented as percentage compared to the control (PBS treated cells). Data represent mean ± SD, n = 3. In addition, there was an error in the paragraph beginning ‘Next, we determined whether Ru(ii) complexes can cause cytotoxicity in the mammalian cells.’ ‘The doses used for Ru(ii) complexes were 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 μM, respectively and the results were very encouraging (Table 1).’ should read ‘The doses used for Ru(ii) complexes were 10-100 μM and the results were very encouraging (Table 1)’ The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
