Abstract
The above article, published online on 6th January 2018, has been retracted by agreement between the journal's Editor-in-Chief Andrew J. Lawrence, Deputy Editor-in-Chief Marco A.M. Prado and John Wiley and Sons Ltd. The authors were contacted for approval of the retraction, but did not respond. The Editorial Office was recently notified of potential image manipulation. A subsequent image forensics analysis indicated that the band in the histone H3 lane of Figure 1A and the bands in beta actin lane of Figure 3A appears similar to each other, such that one band is resized with respect to the other. Original unmodified blots and raw data have been requested from the corresponding author, and the author's institution has been informed of the concerns. However, no response was received. With view to the number of concerns and lack of response to clarify the concerns, the article is retracted on the basis that it contains data that cannot be retrieved and verified. Reference 1.
