At the request of the Executive Editor and Sage, the following article has been retracted –
Cui F, Luo P, Bai Y, Meng J. Silencing of Long Non-Coding RNA FGD5-AS1 Inhibits the Progression of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer by Regulating the miR-493-5p/DDX5 Axis. Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment. 2021;20. doi:10.1177/1533033821990007
The Executive Editor became aware of potential image duplication and manipulation concerns by Pubpeer Post. The concerns raised were:
Figure 2C1 scratch panel at 0 hour of cell line H1650 which is duplicated to scratch panel 24 hour of cell line A 549.

The authors provided the data and explained that an incorrect image was placed due to mislabeling Upon further investigation, Sage have identified that the indicators of unauthorized third-party involvement during the submission and/or peer review process underlying the publication of this article.
Due to concerns about the authenticity of the research, the Executive Editor retracts this article.
