Retraction Note to: MicroRNA-322 Cluster Promotes Tau Phosphorylation via Targeting Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor

Abstract

The Editors have retracted this article [1] following an investigation conducted by the journal. After publication concerns were raised regarding interpretation of the data presented in Fig. 4. The Editors requested additional data and clarification to confirm interpretation of data results. After further review, the Editors found that the additional data were not adequate to support the conclusion of the article and that P-values for the additional data were based on improper statistical analyses. With more appropriate statistical analysis, the reported effects for miR-322 and BDNF were not statistically significant. Dr. Chichu Xie agrees to this retraction. None of the other authors have responded to any correspondence from the publisher about this retraction.
