Expression of Concern: miRNA 17 Family Regulates Cisplatin-Resistant and Metastasis by Targeting TGFbetaR2 in NSCLC

Abstract

Following publication, concerns were raised about duplicate images in Figs 2, 3 and 4 of this article [1]. Specifically, in Fig 2A the top left two panels have a region of overlap and have been taken from the same microscopy image. In Fig 3C “A549/DDP by miRNAs mimics” actin panel lanes 20a and 20b and in Fig 4A actin panel, the same image was used to represent the actin controls from two different experiments. The corresponding author has stated these were mistakes in the preparation of the original figures and provided revised figures.
