Abstract

The Editors have retracted this article. After publication, the authors contacted the journal to request a correction to replace the images presented in Figs. 1j, 2f, 5a and b, as well as Fig. 2j SW620 24h circCTNNA1 image, and Fig. 3a SW620 and SW480 sh-NC plots. The authors explained that the data were incorrectly selected for publication; however, further checks by the Publisher found highly similar features in the cell colony (Figs. 2j, 5a and b) and wound healing (Figs. 2j, 5g and h) images representing different groups, which could not be sufficiently addressed by this explanation.
