RETRACTION: S‐S. Huang, C‐S. Chiu, H‐J. Chen, et al., “Antinociceptive Activities and the Mechanisms of Anti‐Inflammation of Asiatic Acid in Mice,” Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, vol. 2011 (2011), https://doi.org/10.1155/2011/895857.
The above article, published online on 20 April 2011 in Wiley Online Library (https://wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
The retraction has been agreed following an investigation of the concerns raised by Actinopolyspora biskrensis on PubPeer [1], which identified several concerns related to Figure 8a in the paper. More specifically, panels c and d are identical after a vertical flip, despite representing different tissues. In addition, the image of Carr‐treated group in Figure 8b appears in [2] (after 180 degree rotation) as well as Figure 4a of [3].
As a result of the investigation, the data and conclusions of this article are considered unreliable.
The authors have been informed of this decision but did not provide a response.
