This Article contains an error in the Results section under subheading ‘PMN mediated killing of A. fumigatus in vitro is not impaired in ADAMTS-13 deficient mice’.

“As shown in Fig. 5, we observed a comparable killing of conidia (Fig. 5A) and hyphae (Fig. 5B) by PMN from wildtype and Adamts13−/− mice indicating that also this effector function is not impaired through ADAMTS-13 deficiency.”

should read:
