Recently, we had repeated the related tests and found that the results differed, so the conclusion of the article “Vitexin attenuates epithelial ovarian cancer cell viability and motility in vitro and carcinogenesis in vivo via p38 and ERK1/2 pathways related VEGFA” (1) published in the Vol 8, No 18 (September 2020) issue of Annals of Translational Medicine must have some issues. Therefore, the mentioned article needs to be retracted. All authors agree to retract this paper and understand and appreciate the journal’s retraction policy.
