Author Correction: Genome-wide forward genetic screening to identify receptors and proteins mediating nanoparticle uptake and intracellular processing

Correction to: Nature Nanotechnology https://doi.org/10.1038/s41565-024-01629-x, published online 19 March 2024.

After online publication, we became aware of a previously published work which was not referenced in our article and wherein it was shown that the scavenger receptor class B type I is a silica nanoparticle receptor in mouse macrophages and human peripheral blood monocytes¹.

In the “Role of lipoprotein receptors and heparan sulfate in uptake” section, the statement “SCARB1 had not yet been identified as a receptor for silica nanoparticles, though apolipoprotein A1, a major ligand of SCARB1, was shown to be highly abundant in their corona²” has consequently been amended as follows: “It was previously shown that SCARB1 is a silica nanoparticle receptor in mouse macrophages and human peripheral blood monocytes¹. Additionally, apolipoprotein A1, a major ligand of SCARB1, was shown to be highly abundant in the corona forming on silica nanoparticles².” The HTML and PDF versions of the article have been updated.
