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by H. Liu, S.-R. Li, Q. Si, published in Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci 2017; 21 (15): 3353-3359-PMID: 28829508 has been retracted by the Editor in Chief.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 This article has been retracted.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.
H. Liu、S.-R. Li、Q. Si发表于《欧洲医学与药理学评论》2017年；21(15): 3353 - 3359 - PMID: 28829508的文章“miRNAs对卵巢癌中c - met蛋白表达的调控及其意义”已被主编撤回。在PubPeer上有人对图5（链接：https://pubpeer.com/publications/7B6E6E6679990661654EBCAF472921）可能存在的操纵提出一些担忧后，主编已展开调查，以评估结果的有效性以及可能存在的图片操纵情况。已告知作者该期刊的调查，但作者未作回应，也未提供稿件的原始数据。该期刊的调查发现图5中pcDNA3.1 - EGFP和pcDNA3.1 - EGFP - 204 - up板块存在图片重叠。因此，主编对所呈现的结果表示怀疑，并决定撤回该文章。本文已被撤回。出版商对由此可能造成的任何不便表示歉意。https://www.europeanreview.org/article/13200。
