RETRACTION: Lycopene Protects Keratinocytes Against UVB Radiation-Induced Carcinogenesis via Negative Regulation of FOXO3a Through the mTORC2/AKT Signaling Pathway

RETRACTION: P. Chen, S. Xu, and J. Qu, “Lycopene Protects Keratinocytes Against UVB Radiation-Induced Carcinogenesis via Negative Regulation of FOXO3a Through the mTORC2/AKT Signaling Pathway,” Journal of Cellular Biochemistry 119, no. 1 (2018): 366-377, https://doi.org/10.1002/jcb.26189.

The above article, published online on 6 June 2017 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Christian Behl; and Wiley Periodicals LLC. The retraction has been agreed due to concerns raised by third parties. Multiple image elements within Figures 2 A and 4 A were found to have been published previously and/or subsequently by different authors in different scientific contexts. Furthermore, evidence of inappropriate image editing/manipulation were found within Figure 3 C. The authors were invited to comment on these concerns but did not respond. Accordingly, the article is retracted as the editors have lost confidence in the integrity and reliability of the full body of data presented in the article and consider its conclusions invalid. The authors were informed of the retraction.
