The original version of this Article contained an error in the <Endothelial cell heterogeneity> section of the Results, which incorrectly read ‘<Our results showed that EndMT cells can be clearly identified in adipose tissues with co-expression of PECAM1 and ACTA2 (Fig. 3i), as well as VWF and TAGLN, in a small fraction of ECs (Fig. 3j).>.’ The correct version states ‘<Our results showed that EndMT cells can be clearly identified in adipose tissues with co-expression of VWF and TAGLN (Fig. 3i), as well as PECAM1 and ACTA2 (Fig. 3j), in a small fraction of ECs.>’.

The original version of this Article contained an error in the legend to Figure 3, which incorrectly read ‘<i. Representative Immunofluorescence staining images of PECAM1 and ACTA2 in adipose tissue. Arrow (red) indicates ECs expressing both PECAM1 and ACTA2. Arrow (green) indicates ECs only expressing PECAM1 (n = 3). j. Representative Immunofluorescence staining images of VWF and TAGLN in adipose tissues. Arrow (red) indicates ECs expressing both VWF and TAGLN. Arrow (green) indicates ECs only expressing VWF (n = 3). k. IHC of FABP4 in ECs and adipose tissues. Arrows (red) indicate ECs. Arrows (green) indicate adipocytes. Control was stained with an antibody against a gene not expressed in adipose tissues (n = 3).>.’ The correct version states ‘<i. Representative Immunofluorescence staining images of VWF and TAGLN in adipose tissues. Arrow (red) indicates ECs expressing both VWF and TAGLN. Arrow (green) indicates ECs only expressing VWF (n = 3). j. Representative Immunofluorescence staining images of PECAM1 and ACTA2 in adipose tissue. Arrow (red) indicates ECs expressing both PECAM1 and ACTA2. Arrow (green) indicates ECs only expressing PECAM1 (n = 3). k. IHC of FABP4 in ECs and adipose tissues. Arrows (green) indicate ECs.

The original version of this Article contained an error in the <Pre-processing and quality control of scRNA-seq and snRNA-seq data> section of the Methods, which incorrectly read ‘<Cells were only retained if the number of detected genes were greater than 200 and less than 5000 and the percentage of detected mitochondrial genes (percentage of MT) was less than 30%.>.’ The correct version states ‘<Cells were only retained if the number of detected genes were greater than 200 and less than 5000 and the percentage of detected mitochondrial transcripts from MT genes (ATP6, ATP8, COX1, COX2, COX3, CYTB, ND2, ND3, ND4, ND4L, ND5, ND6) was less than 30%. The Pig ND1 gene was not included in MT-based filtering due to high sequence variant in pigs.>’.
