The Editor-in-Chief has retracted this article after concerns were raised about the data reported. Specifically:

  • In Fig. 2F, the panels for sh-linc02042#1 and sh-linc02042#1 both appear highly similar to panels previously published in a paper with no common authors [1], where they are described differently.

  • The blot for KYSE30 in Fig. 4B and the β-actin blot for KYSE30 in Fig. 4D each appear highly similar to blots previously published in a paper with no common authors [2], where they are described differently.

The Editor-in-Chief no longer has confidence in the reliability of the article’s results and conclusions.

The authors did not respond to correspondence from the publisher about this retraction.
