Retraction Note to: Cell Death & Disease https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-022-04678-z, published online 15 March 2022

The Editors-in-Chief have retracted this article because there is overlap within some of the images or data. In particular:

  1. 1.

    Figure 1D (panel D3) shares features with Fig. 1D (panel D4), as well as Fig. 2D (panel NaHS)

  2. 2.

    Figure 2C (panel LX-2+PPG) shares features with Fig. 4C (panel Si + LX-2)

  3. 3.

    Figure 2C (panel PPG) shares features with Fig. 4C (panel Si)

  4. 4.

    Figure 5D (Cytoplasm panel p-JunB) overlaps with Fig. 5E (Cytoplasm panel p-JunB)

In addition, Fig. 1D (panels D3 and D4), as well as Fig. 2D (panel NaHS) appear to have an irregularity within the image.

As a result, the Editors-in-Chief no longer have confidence in the veracity of these data.
