Retraction Note: BMC Neurosci19, 7 (2018).
The Editor has retracted this article at the corresponding author’s request. After publication, concerns were raised regarding similarities in the presented data. Specifically:
-
In Fig. 6, the PFC 5xFAD + SLCP (2d) and CA1 5xFAD + Cur (2d) images appear highly similar;
-
Also in Fig. 6, the CA3 5xFAD + Cur (2d) and 5xFAD + SLCP (2d) appear to originate from the same sample;
-
Figure 8a GFAP 5xFAD (top) appears highly similar to Fig. 13a GFAP 5xFAD (bottom) with a brightness adjustment.
The authors checked their data and identified additional errors:
-
In Fig. 11a, the two Iba-1 5xFAD images originated from the same sample;
-
In Fig. 14a, the two Iba-1 5xFAD images originated from the same sample.
The Editor and the authors therefore no longer have confidence in the presented data.
All authors agree to this retraction.
