RETRACTED ARTICLE: Cdc25C/cdc2/cyclin B, raf/MEK/ERK and PERK/eIF2α/CHOP pathways are involved in forskolin-induced growth inhibition of MM.1S cells by G2/M arrest and mitochondrion-dependent apoptosis

Statement of Retraction

We, the Editors and Publisher of the Cell Cycle journal, have retracted the following article:

Ping Yang, Pei-Wen Jiang, Chen Li, Ming-Xiang Gao, Yi-Song Sun, Dan-Ying Zhang, Wen-Qian Du, Jing Zhao, Song-Ting Shi, Yan Li, Tai Yang, Li Cheng and Min-Hui Li. Cdc25C/cdc2/cyclin B, raf/MEK/ERK and PERK/eIF2α/CHOP pathways are involved in forskolin-induced growth inhibition of MM.1S cells by G2/M arrest and mitochondrion-dependent apoptosis. Cell Cycle. 2020;20(22):2402-2412. doi: 10.1080/15384101.2021.1983280

Since publication, concerns have been raised about the integrity of the data in the article. When approached for an explanation, the authors were cooperative, however, they 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 authors have agreed to retract the article.

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The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as ‘Retracted’.
