Retraction to: Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy 10.1038/s41392-019-0082-5, published online 06 December 2019
The authors have retracted this article. After publication, concerns were raised regarding suspected overlap in the cell images in Figs. 2 and 3. Specifically:
Figs. 2f and 3f (HUH-7 Scramble) appear to contain an overlapping area.
HepG2 Scramble in Fig. 2d and HUH-7 LV-DKK1 in Fig. 3d appear to be mirror images.
A part of the HUH7 Scramble image in Fig. 2d appears to be enlarged and presented as HepG2 Scramble.
The authors therefore no longer have confidence in the presented data.
All authors agree to this retraction.
