RETRACTION: Regulation of Prostaglandin Production in Carrageenan-Induced Pleurisy Melatonin

Abstract

S. Cuzzocrea, G. Costantino, E. Mazzon, and A. P. Caputi, "Regulation of Prostaglandin Production in Carrageenan-Induced Pleurisy Melatonin," Journal of Pineal Research 27, no. 1 (1999): 9-14, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1600-079X.1999.tb00591.x. The above article, published online on 30 January 2007 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Gianluca Tosini; and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. The retraction has been agreed due to concerns raised by third parties on the data presented in the article. Specifically, the sample shown in Figure 3A has been identified as being used in a different scientific context in another article from the same author group, which was submitted concurrently. The data provided by the corresponding author upon request was insufficient to address the concerns. The article is retracted as the editors have lost trust in the accuracy and integrity of the overall body of data presented in the article and consider its conclusions invalid.
