Retraction of: J. Cell Sci. 122, 4452-4464
Journal of Cell Science was alerted by readers to potential image manipulation and reuse in papers published in the journal by Dr Anil K. Jaiswal, the corresponding author. An investigation was conducted by the author's institution, the University of Maryland, Baltimore, during which they documented alleged irregularities in Figures 3A, 3C, 5A, 7C, 8D and 9B of the paper named above. The investigatory committee recommended that we retract the above paper.
The first author (Suryakant K. Niture) does not agree to this retraction.
Attempts on the part of the journal office to contact Abhinav K. Jain were unsuccessful.
This retraction is part of a series of retractions of papers on which Dr Jaiswal is corresponding author:
