<p>Int J Oncol 47: <related-article id="RA1" related-article-type="retracted-article" vol="47" page="1585" ext-link-type="doi" xlink:href="10.3892/ijo.2015.3112">1585-1593</related-article>, 2015; DOI: 10.3892/ijo.2015.3112</p>
<p>Following the publication of this paper, it was drawn to the Editors' attention by a concerned reader that the data shown in Figs. 2C and 3A bore unexpected similarities to data appearing in different form in other articles by different authors. Owing to the fact that some of the contentious data in the above article had already been published elsewhere, or were already under consideration for publication, prior to its submission to <italic>Internatinal Journal of Oncology</italic>, the Editor has decided that this paper should be retracted from the Journal. After having been in contact with the authors, they agreed with the decision to retract the paper. The Editor apologizes to the readership for any inconvenience caused.</p></body></article>
