P.534 left column 2nd paragraph:"Typically, tumor pHe is heterogeneous with a range of 6.44 < pHe < 6.79 [primary source]. The tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in cancer cell invasion and metastasis [refs 29,30], as acidic pH induces invasive, migratory behavior in vitro [ref 30] and metastasis in vivo [ref 31], through the activation and release of proteases from cancer cells [refs 32–35]."
