PubPeer长达5年的声讨质疑，PLOS ONE终于撤除了国家自然科学基金资助论文

该国家自然科学基金资助论文于2014发表后立即招来国际同行在PubPeer上举报图片造假，并通告了PLOS ONE编辑部，但编辑部“视而不见”，引起众怒。今日，PLOS ONE终于撤稿了该论文。

国家自然科学基金资助：81150028

问题图片之一：

不同实验组图片中出现了“数量、形状、结构等”几乎一模一样的内容

该图片来源于PubPeer，但采用艾普蕾图像系统检测发现了新的相似部分（对照组和实验组中六边形中的内容）。

撤稿通知：

Following the publication of this article, the following concerns were raised:

In Fig 5D the blank, control and experimental panels contain clusters of cells that appear similar across panels.

In Fig 3A, the GAPDH and S6K1 panels appear to contain black boxes below the bands.

The authors provided modified images for the panels in Fig 5D, which did not satisfactorily resolve the concerns raised. In addition, the authors provided primary data underlying all bar graphs, but the uncropped scans of blots and primary data underlying all other figures are unavailable.

In light of the above-mentioned concerns that question the validity of the study’s findings and owing to the lack of availability of data underlying the figures for which concerns were raised, the PLOS ONE Editors retract the article.
