Statement of Retraction: Long non-coding RNA GAS5 sensitizes renal cell carcinoma to sorafenib via miR-21/SOX5 pathway

PMCID: PMC9980682  PMID: 36728914

We, the Editors and Publisher of the journal Cell Cycle, have retracted the following article:

Lei Liu, Xinlu Pang, Wenjin Shang, Hongchang Xie, Yonghua Feng, and Guiwen Feng. Long non-coding RNA GAS5 sensitizes renal cell carcinoma to sorafenib via miR-21/SOX5 pathway. Cell Cycle. 2019;18(3): 257-263. doi:10.1080/15384101.2018.1475826.

Since publication, significant concerns have been raised about the integrity of the data and reported results in the article. When approached for an explanation, the authors did not provide their original data or any necessary supporting information. As verifying the validity of published work is core to the integrity of the scholarly record, we are therefore retracting the article. The corresponding author listed in this publication has been informed. The authors agree with the retraction.

We have been informed in our decision-making by our policy on publishing ethics and integrity and the COPE guidelines on retractions.

The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as ‘Retracted’.
