Deng H, Wang Y, Zhou Y, et al. Int J Nanomedicine. 2023;18:2003–2015. We, the Editors and Publisher of the journal, International Journal of Nanomedicine have retracted the published article. After publication, concerns have been raised by a third party about the integrity of the data in the article. Further investigations conducted by the Journal and Publisher confirmed duplicate image panels representative of different treatment conditions present in Figure 7. When approached for an explanation, the authors have provided their raw data and the relevant documentation. However, further data integrity concerns have been identified in the raw data provided. As verifying the validity of published work is core to the integrity of the scholarly record, we are therefore retracting the article. The corresponding author listed in this publication has been informed. We have been informed in our decision-making by our editorial policies and the COPE guidelines. The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as ‘Retracted’.
