Retraction: Parasites & Vectors (2023) 16:465 10.1186/s13071-023-06075-7
The Editors-in-Chief have retracted this article because concerns were raised over the presentation of the figures; this includes undeclared splicing of western blots in Figs. 2g and 5g, 5h, 6h, 6i and the alteration of contrast and resizing of these images. Western blot images in Figs. 2, 5 and 6, as well as cell transfection images were replaced between acceptance and publication, and were therefore not subjected to peer review. The authors have stated they will perform repeat experiments and a revised manuscript may be submitted for reconsideration.
All authors agree to this retraction.
