Author Correction: Evaluation of in vitro and in vivo antibiotic efficacy against a novel bioluminescent Shigella flexneri.

abstract：:Chronic hepatitis viral infection, alcoholic intoxication, and obesity cause liver fibrosis, which progresses to decompensated liver cirrhosis, a disease for which medical demands cannot be met. Since there are currently no approved anti-fibrotic therapies for established liver fibrosis, the development of novel modal...
