The Editor-in-Chief has retracted this article after concerns were raised about the data reported. Specifically:

• The β-actin blot in Fig. 2d appears similar to an image included in Fig. 1k of a prior publication [1], with no common authors.
• The HE panel of WT OVX in Fig. 3a appears similar to an image included in Fig. 5b of a prior publication [2], with no common authors.
• The COI1A1 and DLX2 blots in Fig. 5i appear similar to images included in Fig. 4f of a separate publication with no common authors [3], which was published around the same time as this publication.

The authors were not able to provide raw data for this publication upon request by the Publisher. The Editor-in-Chief no longer has confidence in the findings and conclusions of this article.

The authors did not respond to correspondence from the Publisher regarding this retraction.
