This article (1) has been retracted at the request of the authors. In Fig. 3G, the image that represents a migration assay of HFE-145 cells transduced with shKM12c was previously published as an image representing an invasion assay of HT1080 grown as spheroids and treated with imatinib (Fig. 3D; ref. 2).
A copy of this Retraction Notice was sent to the last known email addresses for all 13 authors. Nine authors (Soo-Jeong Cho, Changhwan Yoon, Jun Ho Lee, Kevin K. Chang, Myeong-Cherl Kook, Bülent Arman Aksoy, Hassan Ashktorab, Nikolaus Schultz, and Sam S. Yoon) agreed to the retraction, and four authors (Jian-xian Lin, Young-Ho Kim, Do Joong Park, and Duane T. Smoot) did not respond.
NOTE—Additional information for the reader follows.
A figure panel in this article (1) appears to have published in a later article in an unrelated journal (3). Specifically, one panel in Fig. 4D of this article appears to be duplicated in Figs. 2D and 3E of the subsequent article.
