RETRACTED ARTICLE: A new Ni(II)-based coordination polymer: structural characterization and protective effect on type 2 diabetes by regulating PKC and MAPK expression

Abstract

We, the Editors and Publisher of the journal Inorganic and Nano-Metal Chemistry, have retracted the following article: Qin Li, Xiuzhen Shi, Qiong Luo, Aili Guo & Yijing Guo (2020) A new Ni(II)-based coordination polymer: structural characterization and protective effect on type 2 diabetes by regulating PKC and MAPK expression, Inorganic and Nano-Metal Chemistry, 50:3, 156-161, DOI: 10.1080/24701556.2019.1695837 Since publication, concerns have been raised about the integrity of the data in the article. When approached for an explanation, the authors have been unable to address the concerns raised and have not been able to provide sufficient supporting information. 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 policy on publishing ethics and integrity and the COPE guidelines on retractions. The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as ‘Retracted’.
