Abstract

Main text(Molecular Therapy 18, 1130–1142; June 2010) This article has been retracted at the request of the editor-in-chief. A third party communicated concerns of image reuse to the editorial office. Concerns were also posted to a Pubpeer thread: https://pubpeer.com/publications/2736C7BC1BC51DCAE0AB6216E17255. Image analysis performed by the editorial office revealed evidence of image duplication in identical or altered fashion within Figures 6D (Ad.5-cmv Day 3 and Ad.5-mda-7 Day 6; Ad.5/3-mda-7 Day 6 and Ad.5-mda-7 Day 9) and S5 (Ad.5-cmv beta-gal and Ad.5-cmv+XRT beta-gal) of this article. Evidence of image reuse in identical or altered fashion between Figure 4A (P-PERK and GAPDH blot images) of this article and Figure 3A (P-PERK and GAPDH blot images) of an article in Cancer Biology and Therapy (Hamed et al., 2010, Cancer Biol. Ther. 9, 526–536, https://doi.org/10.4161/cbt.9.7.11116) was also found. This reuse (and in part misrepresentation) of data without appropriate attribution represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The authors have stated that they no longer have the original data for this article. The notice of retraction was undeliverable to authors A.Y., P.J.E., and S.G.
