Why This Matters

This correction updates duplicated data points and clarifies methods in a preclinical synthetic-biology study about engineered materials that secrete therapeutic proteins for IBD, which affects interpretation and reproducibility for researchers.

Who Should Pay Attention

Researchers in synthetic biology and IBD therapeutics; translational scientists and clinicians following novel biologic-delivery platforms.

What To Know

This item is an author correction (erratum) to a research article in Nature Biotechnology that reported engineered "living glues"—synthetic biology constructs that secrete therapeutic proteins—for treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

The correction fixes duplicated data points in figures and updates the statistical-analysis wording, some figure legends ("ex vivo" replacement), and associated source data, figures, and reporting summary. The corrected figures and original versions (for comparison) are available with the amendment.

Keep In Mind

This is an erratum (author correction) to a Nature Biotechnology paper; it replaces figures, source data and reporting details and does not introduce new clinical findings.

Source Details

Review the original publication for the complete reporting, methods, and context.
