Following the publication of the above article and a corrigendum (doi: 10.3892/or.2023.8593) that was published 3 years ago to resolve the issue of duplicated data that had been noted comparing Figs. 1B and C, and 3B and C, respectively, a concerned reader has contacted the Editorial Office to draw our attention to the fact that a series of potential duplications of western blot data had also been noted comparing Fig. 4 with Fig. 5B.

Given the discovery of these additional errors that were made in terms of the assembly of two other figures in the above paper, the Editor of Oncology Reports has decided that this article should now be retracted from the Journal on account of a lack of confidence in the originally presented data. The authors were asked for an explanation to account for these concerns, but the Editorial Office did not receive a reply. The Editor apologizes to the readership for any inconvenience caused.
