The Editors in Chief retracted this article because of significant concerns regarding a number of Figures presented in this work, which question the integrity of the data. The authors have contacted the journal requesting a retraction and stating some of the figures presented here did not match the original data. After publication, overlap was detected with figures in articles submitted and published within a close time frame including, but not limited to ([1–6], now retracted). Specifically, Figs. 2i, j, o and p, 4e, f, g and h and 6c. Furthemore, it appears there’s a small image overlap between Fig. 6e mimics + Lenti-NC 24 h and Fig. 6f mimics + Lenti-NC 24 h.
The Editors-in-Chief therefore no longer have confidence in the integrity of the data in this article.
All authors agree to this retraction.
