The Editor-in-Chief has retracted this article. After publication, the authors asked to retract the article because the experiment could not be reproduced. They found that the cell lines used in this study (HEMa-LP, SK-MEL28, SK-MEL2, A375) were mixed up, which affected the results of transfection, PCR, and Western blot analysis. Therefore, the Editor-in-Chief has lost confidence in the findings of the paper.
Hui Zhou and Yexiao Wang agree to this retraction. Lifei Zhu, Chaoying Yang, Yanchang Li, Zhixin Zheng and Liangcai Wu have not responded to correspondence concerning the retraction wording.
