Retraction to: Cancer Gene Therapy
https://doi.org/10.1038/cgt.2015.41 Published online 23 October 2015
The Editor-in-Chief has retracted this article because figures 1b, d, 3a, 4b, 5b, d and e, 6a, b, c, as well as parts of the text were duplicated from a previously published article by Bao et al. [1]. In addition, the article shows significant overlap with an article by Tian et al. that was simultaneously under consideration [2] and another previously published article by Wu et al. [3].
The authors have not responded to correspondence regarding this retraction.
