Abstract

This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/policies/article-withdrawal). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief. The journal was alerted to 24 suspected image duplications contained within this article, and between the following articles: Oncotarget. 2017; 8:31153–31,168; and Neoplasma. 2016; 63:717–725. Independent image analysis confirmed these findings and identified three additional suspected image duplications. In total, Figs. 1, 2, 5, 7 + 8 contained image duplications. The journal requested the authors provide a more detailed explanation to these concerns and all associated raw data. The authors were not able to satisfactorily fulfil this request. During the investigation the co-corresponding author, Guisheng Song, informed the journal that they were unaware of their listing as corresponding author. An internal investigation confirmed that a different email address for Song was associated with the submitted manuscript, compared to the published article. Consequently, Song had not received the email requesting confirmation of the authorship request, or any other journal communications relating to this submission. The corresponding author, Zhuoyu Li, confirmed that Song had not contributed any data to the article and agreed that Song should not have been an author. The Editor-in-Chief assessed the case and decided to retract the article.
