Retraction Note: A synthetic dsRNA, as a TLR3 pathwaysynergist, combined with sorafenib suppresses HCC in vitro and in vivo
BMC Cancer volume 23, Article number: 636 (2023)
The Original Article was published on 06 November 2013
Retraction Note: BMC Cancer 13, 527 (2013)
The Editor has retracted this article because it appears that some of the text and figures have been previously published by some of the same authors. Specifically:
-
there is substantial text overlap with results section in [1]
-
Figure 2B appears to present the same data as Fig. 1C in [1]
-
It appears the same FACS plots have been presented in Fig. 3B (for srfn, poly (I:C) and control) as in Fig. 4A in [1]
-
Figure 3C (sifn and Poly(I:C) ) and 3D appear to show the same images as those published previously in [1] in Fig. 3A
Author Yu-Yin Xu does not agree to this retraction. None of the other authors have responded to any correspondence from the editor or publisher about this retraction
