Jeyaseelan, S., S. K. Young, M. Yamamoto, P. G. Arndt, S. Akira, J. K. Kolls, and G. S. Worthen. 2006. Toll/IL-1R domain-containing adaptor protein (TIRAP) is a critical mediator of antibacterial defense in the lung against Klebsiella pneumoniae but not Pseudomonas aeruginosa. J. Immunol. 177: 538–547.

In the original article, Fig. 5E had inadvertently misplaced overlapping TIRAP−/− and TIRAP+/+ images in unstimulated and TNF-α–stimulated panels. The version of the figure shown below includes the correct TIRAP+/+ images in unstimulated and TNF-α–stimulated panels from the original data in Fig. 5E. The figure legend was correct as published and is shown below for reference.

(A and B) Unimpaired capacity of TIRAP−/− and TIRAP+/+ neutrophils to uptake/kill Kp. A total of 106 CFU of Kp was cultured alone or in the presence of 106 CFU of bone marrow-derived polymorphonuclear neutrophils from TIRAP−/− or TIRAP+/+ mice in 1 ml of medium. Viable bacteria were then enumerated at 2 and 6 h after culture. The CFU values shown represent mean ± SE of a single experiment performed in triplicate from three mice per group. (C and D) Impaired up-regulation of VCAM-1 in the lung after Kp but not Pa inoculation. The lungs were homogenized, total protein in the lungs was quantitated, and proteins were resolved on an 8–15% gel. The autoradiograph of VCAM-1 is a representative blot of six mice from three separate experiments (C). The graph shows VCAM-1 (D) for each sample expressed relative to the densitometric value of saline-treated sample at 24 h. *, p < 0.05; significant differences between TIRAP−/− and TIRAP+/+ mice. (E) Unaltered actin assembly in TIRAP−/− and TIRAP+/+ neutrophils after chemokine and cytokine stimulation. Bone marrow-derived neutrophils were isolated and stimulated with MIP-2 and TNF-α. Cells were labeled with nitrobenzoxadiazole-phallacidin, and actin cytoskeleton changes were assessed by an immunofluorescence microscope. Photographs are representative of the pictures of cells from two separate experiments (five mice in each group) with identical results.
