Retraction of: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-22289-7, published 02 March 2018 The Editors have retracted this Article. Following publication, concerns were raised that the PTEN blot in Figure 1B duplicates the CtIP expression blot in Figure 4B of a prior publication with overlapping authorship [1]. Further investigation found irregularities with other Figures including 1B, 4A, 4F, 6A–B, and S3, which the Authors could not satisfactorily explain.
