Following publication of the original article [1], it was brought to the authors' attention that there was an error in panel A of Fig. 3: the purple lines in the graphs had been rendered in blue while the blue ones had been rendered in purple. This formatting error has since been corrected in the published article and the corrected Fig. 3 may be seen in this erratum for reference.

The effect of haemozoin on cytokine production in vitro: Diluted whole blood from healthy volunteers were stimulated with haemozoin at a fnal concentration of 60 nmol/mL at 37 °C. Supernatants were collected at 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 h. Cytokines IL-1β (A), GM-CSF (B), TNF (C), IFN-γ (D), IL-10 (E), IL-6 (F), IL-13 (G), IL-7 (H), and IL8 (I) are measured over time. The 95% confdence interval for each cytokine is reported. Asterisks show signifcant diferences found between unstimulated blood (purple) and blood stimulated with haemozoin (blue) with multiple comparison t-test. *, p ≤ 0.05; **, p ≤ 0.001; ***, p ≤ 0.0001; ****, p < 0.0001

The authors thank you for reading this erratum and apologize for any inconvenience caused.
