This article has been retracted at the request of the editor-in-chief. The editor-in-chief was informed of evidence for image duplication in identical or altered fashion in Figures 3A and 8D, as well as undisclosed reuse of an image in Figure 5B from a previous article in Cell Death & Disease (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-018-0902-5), in a PubPeer thread: https://pubpeer.com/publications/F5B591481C516F4CE42C7925AC48E9. Image analysis performed by the journal's editorial office confirmed these findings. This reuse (and in part misrepresentation) of data without appropriate attribution represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system.
