Retraction Note: Regulation of miRNAs on c-met protein expression in ovarian cancer and its implication.

The article "Regulation of miRNAs on c-met protein expression in ovarian cancer and its implication", by H. Liu, S.-R. Li, Q. Si, published in Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci 2017; 21 (15): 3353-3359-PMID: 28829508 has been retracted by the Editor in Chief. Following some concerns raised on PubPeer regarding a possible manipulation in Figure 5 (link: https://pubpeer.com/publications/7B6E6E6679990661654EBCAF472921), the Editor in Chief has started an investigation to assess the validity of the results as well as possible figure manipulation. The authors were informed about the journal's investigation but remained unresponsive and have not provided the manuscript's raw data. The journal's investigation revealed a figure overlap between panels pcDNA3.1-EGFP and pcDNA3.1-EGFP-204-up in Figure 5. Consequently, the Editor in Chief mistrusts the results presented and has decided to retract the article. This article has been retracted. The Publisher apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause. https://www.europeanreview.org/article/13200.
