The Editor-in-Chief is retracting this article because it contains multiple internal inconsistencies between the reported results, their interpretation, and the stated conclusions, particularly regarding expression of Nrf2 and HO-1. Their expression is described in conflicting directions across different sections, and the findings are not coherently aligned with the proposed mechanisms. These discrepancies raise concerns about the accuracy of data interpretation and the reliability of the study’s conclusions, thereby undermining its overall scientific validity. The authors disagree with the decision to retract.
