This article has been retracted at the request of the authors. We earlier published a corrigendum: Yan, C., Yang, Q., & Gong, Z. (2022). Corrigendum to “Activation of hepatic stellate cells during liver carcinogenesis requires fibrinogen/integrin αvβ5 in zebrafish” Neoplasia 20(5):533–542 (Neoplasia (2018) 20(5) (533–542), (S1476558617306024), (HYPERLINK “http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neo.2018.02.002”). Neoplasia (United States), 33. HYPERLINK “http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neo.2022.100831”.
Now the authors have carefully evaluated the validity of the manuscript, specifically the mis-annotation of the gene itgb3a to itgb5 in the title and throughout the manuscript, as well as and the non-replacement of duplicated images. These errors could mislead the readers of the manuscript and the simple corrigendum may not be sufficient to clarify the errors. Thus the authors would like to retract the original manuscript and the corrigendum in order to avoid further confusion.
