This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief. Concerns were raised about the background pattern of the Western Blots from Figures 3 and 5-7. Given the comments of Dr Elisabeth Bik regarding this article “This paper belongs to a set of over 400 papers (as per February 2020) that share very similar Western blots with tadpole-like shaped bands, the same background pattern, and striking similarities in title structures, paper layout, bar graph design, and - in a subset - flow cytometry panels”, the journal requested the authors to provide the raw data. However, the authors were not able to provide raw data of sufficient quality and detail for the journal to independently audit the provenance and validity of the data, and therefore the Editor-in-Chief decided to retract the article.
请参阅爱思唯尔关于文章撤回的政策（https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal）。应主编的要求，本文已被撤回。有人对图 3 和 5-7 的 Western Blot 的背景模式提出了质疑。鉴于 Elisabeth Bik 博士对这篇文章的评论“这篇论文属于 400 多篇论文（截至 2020 年 2 月）中的一组，这些论文的 Western blot 非常相似，都有类似蝌蚪形状的条带、相同的背景模式，并且在标题结构、论文布局、条形图设计以及在一个子集中的流式细胞术面板上都有惊人的相似之处”，杂志要求作者提供原始数据。然而，作者无法提供足够质量和详细程度的原始数据，使杂志能够独立审核数据的来源和有效性，因此主编决定撤回该文章。
