The Editors-in-Chief have retracted this article. Concerns were raised regarding a number of figures, specifically:

  • Figure 1e: appears to be overlapped between the panels for HeLa/S sh-NC and HeLa/DDP sh-NC.

  • Figure 2a appears to contain multiple instances of repeating features.

  • Figure 2b appears to be also published as Fig. 2B in an article by different authors that was simultaneously under consideration at a different journal [1].

  • Figure 5c appears to contain data points that were added at different stages.

  • Figure 6c: the original background for the tumors appears to have been removed.

The Editors-in-Chief therefore no longer have confidence in the results and conclusions of this article.

Corresponding author Jun-li Wang has stated that all authors agree with this retraction.
