The authors of the original article “Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist eplerenone and MR modulator balcinrenone prevent renal extracellular matrix remodeling and inflammation via the MR/proteoglycan/TLR4 pathway” DOI: 10.1042/CS20240302 would like to correct Table 1 in their paper. The authors state that there is an error in the Na+ (mmol/24h) CKD-HFD Balcin (7) value, which should read “0.10±0.01”, instead of “0.01±0.01”. The requested correction has been assessed and agreed by the Editorial Board.

Physiological parameters of the groups Sham-HFD, CKD-HFD, CKD-HFD Balcin and CKD-HFD Eple measured at the sacrifice. The 24h urine collection for albuminuria, aldosteronuria, natriuria and kaliuria measurements was retrieved one week before sacrifice. Data represent the mean ± SEM. Statistical analysis by one-way ANOVA; with Tukey post-test *P<0.05 *; **P ≤ 0.01; ****P ≤ 0.0001 n = 5-7.
