The authors have retracted this article [1] because they have been unable to replicate the results of their study. After publication they expanded the sample size and repeated the measurements, and found that miR-29b-3p was not always down-regulated in the rat MCAO model and OGD cell model. In addition, when the processing time was doubled, miR-29b-3p showed an upward trend. The conclusions presented are therefore not reliable. All authors agree with this retraction.
