Editorial Expression of Concern: A model of anti-angiogenesis: differential transcriptosome profiling of microvascular endothelial cells from diffuse systemic sclerosis patients

Abstract

Editorial Expression of Concern: Arthritis Res Ther 8, R115 (2006)

https://doi.org/10.1186/ar2002

The Editors-in-Chief are issuing an editorial expression of concern to alert readers that panel C in Fig. 3 appears to be very similar to panel H in Fig. 2 in a previously-published article by the same author group [1], but the images are labelled differently. Due to the age of the articles, it is not possible to compare the panels to raw data. The readers are asked to interpret the image with caution.

D’Alessio S, Margheri F, Serratì S, Pucci M (retired), Fibbi G (retired), and Del Rosso M (retired) agree with this Editorial Express of Concern.

Matrix metalloproteinase 12–dependent cleavage of urokinase receptor in systemic sclerosis microvascular endothelial cells results in impaired angiogenesis.
