RETRACTION: Sesamin Enhances Nrf2‐Mediated Protective Defense against Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Colitis via AKT and ERK Activation
Abstract
RETRACTION: X. Bai, X. Gou, P. Cai, C. Xu, L. Cao, Z. Zhao, M. Huang, and J. Jin, “Sesamin Enhances Nrf2-Mediated Protective Defense against Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Colitis via AKT and ERK Activation,” Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity 2019, no. 1 (2019): 2432416, https://doi.org/10.1155/2019/2432416. The SSM (2 h) GR blots in Figure 4a appear identical to the SSM (8 h) GAPDH blots shown in Figure 5a when flipped horizontally. In Figure 5d, the HO-1 blots appear identical to the GCLM blots. After requesting further clarification regarding the errors, the authors requested the retraction of the article due to a lack of confidence in the reliability of the results. After assessment by the Chief Editor, the article is retracted. The authors agree to the retraction.
