The result of this re-evaluation suggested that the paper was likely submitted by a third-party service consistent with a paper mill submission.The publisher made multiple attempts to contact the corresponding author of the paper, Dr. Bo Gao, as well as the co-authors, to request the raw data files from which the paper was derived. When no response was received, the publisher determined that retraction was the necessary action.The Editors and Publisher of Human Gene Therapy are committed to preserving the integrity of the scientific literature and the community it serves, and do not tolerate any misconduct.Reference1.
