Abstract
Jalili-Nik M, Afshari AR, Sabri H, Bibak B, Mollazadeh H, Sahebkar A. Zerumbone, a ginger sesquiterpene, inhibits migration, invasion, and metastatic behavior of human malignant glioblastoma multiforme in vitro. BioFactors. 2021;47:729–39. https://doi.org/10.1002/biof.1756
The initial submission of this article presented Figure 4 derived from a scanned gel image that was cropped to focus on specific bands. This resulted in concerns regarding the verifiability of the original data. To rectify this issue, the authors have revised the figures in the article to include data from replicates for which source data is available. This updated analysis encompasses results from three independent experiments, which clearly demonstrate that the reduction in MMPs' activity with increasing dosages of Zerumbone is consistently replicated across these experiments. Importantly, the overall significance of the new reanalysis remains consistent with the initial findings, adequately addressing the editors' concerns. The authors ensure the integrity of their published work.
期刊介绍:
BioFactors, a journal of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, is devoted to the rapid publication of highly significant original research articles and reviews in experimental biology in health and disease.
The word “biofactors” refers to the many compounds that regulate biological functions. Biological factors comprise many molecules produced or modified by living organisms, and present in many essential systems like the blood, the nervous or immunological systems. A non-exhaustive list of biological factors includes neurotransmitters, cytokines, chemokines, hormones, coagulation factors, transcription factors, signaling molecules, receptor ligands and many more. In the group of biofactors we can accommodate several classical molecules not synthetized in the body such as vitamins, micronutrients or essential trace elements.
In keeping with this unified view of biochemistry, BioFactors publishes research dealing with the identification of new substances and the elucidation of their functions at the biophysical, biochemical, cellular and human level as well as studies revealing novel functions of already known biofactors. The journal encourages the submission of studies that use biochemistry, biophysics, cell and molecular biology and/or cell signaling approaches.
