Following the publication of the above paper, it has been drawn to the Editors' attention by a concerned reader that certain of the lumen formation assay data shown in Fig. 5A on p. 112 were strikingly similar to data appearing in different form in another article written by different authors at different research institute, which had already been published in the journal prior to the submission of this paper to , and which has also subsequently been retracted. In view of the fact that the contentious data had already apparently been published previously, the Editor of 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.

上述论文发表后,一位关注此事的读者引起了编辑的注意,即第112页图5A所示的某些管腔形成测定数据与另一位不同作者在不同研究机构撰写的另一篇文章中以不同形式出现的数据惊人地相似,该文章在本文提交给本期刊之前已经在该期刊上发表,且随后也已被撤回。鉴于有争议的数据显然已经在之前发表过,《国际分子医学杂志》的编辑决定将本文从该期刊撤回。在与作者联系后,他们同意撤回该论文的决定。编辑就由此造成的不便向读者表示歉意。[《国际分子医学杂志》44: 103 - 114, 2019; DOI: 10.3892/ijmm.2019.4183]
