This article is being retracted at the request of the Editor and one of the authors, Domenico Pratico. The retraction is related to improper figure presentation in the article entitled “Pharmacologic Blockade of 5-Lipoxygenase Improves the Amyloidotic Phenotype of an Alzheimer's Disease Transgenic Mouse Model: Involvement of ɣ-Secretase,” which appeared in the April 2011 issue of The American Journal of Pathology (Volume 178, pages 1762-1769; https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajpath.2010.12.032). After thorough review by Dr. Pratico and the Editor-in-Chief it was concluded that the actin band of figure 4B and 5A of the paper were improperly used and should not be considered valid. Coauthor Jin Chu was notified of this decision but did not respond to any communication regarding the retraction of this manuscript. The Office of Research at Temple University has been notified of this retraction.
