Abstract

We wish to retract the article titled "Ku86 Variant Expression and Function in Multiple Myeloma Cells Is Associated with Increased Sensitivity to DNA Damage" by Yu-Tzu Tai, Gerrard Teoh, Boris Lin, Faith E. Davies, Dharminder Chauhan, Steven P. Treon, Noopur Raje, Teru Hideshima, Yoshihito Shima, Klaus Podar, and Kenneth C. Anderson, The Journal of Immunology, 2000, 165:6347-6355. There are concerns about the reliability of certain data, arising from errors in the assembly of Figs. 1B, 1D. The authors have concluded that these figures cannot be used to support the conclusions of the article. Given these concerns, the authors would like to respectfully request that this paper be retracted.
