RETRACTED ARTICLE: A Co(II) coordination polymer: enhanced fentanyl analgesic activity via reducing glutamate receptor expression

Abstract

We, the Editors and Publisher of the Journal of Coordination Chemistry, have retracted the following article:

Yi Du, Wen-Jing Wu, Ning Ma, Hai-Peng Shi, Yan-Ping Li & Wei-Dong Wu. A Co(II) coordination polymer: enhanced fentanyl analgesic activity via reducing glutamate receptor expression, Journal of Coordination Chemistry; 2020, VOL. 73, NO. 7, 1119–1130. DOI: 10.1080/00958972.2020.1763322

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. The authors do not agree with the retraction.

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The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as ‘Retracted’.
