"The Editors would like to alert the readers that concerns have been raised regarding the western blot bands for total p53 in Fig. 3."
"Specifically, the bands in panels b and c appear to be very similar."
"The authors no longer have the original data so the images could not be verified. Readers are advised to interpret these results with caution. Wei Gu has stated on behalf of the authors that they do not agree with this Expression of Concern."
Editors have alerted readers that concerns were raised about the western blot bands for total p53 in Fig. 3. The bands in panels b and c appear very similar, raising potential image duplication issues. The original raw data are no longer available, preventing verification of the images. Readers are advised to interpret the affected results with caution pending any verification. A statement issued on behalf of the research team indicates disagreement with the Expression of Concern, and no original images remain in hand to resolve the similarity.
