Abstract
D.-C. Liu, L.-L. Song, Q. Liang, L. Hao, Z.-G. Zhang, and C.-H. Han, "Long Noncoding RNA LEF1-AS1 Silencing Suppresses the Initiation and Development of Prostate Cancer by Acting as a Molecular Sponge of miR-330-5p via LEF1 Repression," Journal of Cellular Physiology 234, no. 8 (2019): 12727-12744. https://doi.org/10.1002/jcp.27893. The above article, published online on 05 January 2019 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), and has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Robert Heath; and Wiley Periodicals LLC. A third party reported that images shared overlapping sections in Figure 3B in this article, and this duplication was confirmed by the publisher. The third party also reported that duplicated images in this article had been detected in subsequent articles by different authors, each of which describes different experimental conditions (Zhao, et al. 2019 [https://doi.org/10.1002/jcp.28902]); (Ou, et al. 2020 [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ebiom.2020.102694]; and (Sha, et al. 2021 [https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.203088]). The authors did not respond to an inquiry by the publisher. The retraction has been agreed on because the evidence of image duplication within this article, as well as subsequent unexplained duplications with other articles, fundamentally compromises the conclusions reported in this article. The authors responded to our notice regarding the retraction but did not state their agreement nor their disagreement with the retraction.
