Abstract
At the request of the Journal Editor the following article has been retracted.
Xu Y, Liu Y, Xiao W, et al. MicroRNA-299-3p/FOXP4 Axis Regulates the Proliferation and Migration of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment, DOI:10.1177/1533033819874803
Significant similarities between this paper and a number of other papers have been identified, as well as indication of image and data manipulation suggestive of the use of a “paper mill”. These papers share common structures and wording yet do not share any common authors.
In addition, the Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment Editorial Office became aware that the peer review process for this article had been compromised, and we have reason to believe this was due to author misconduct.
The authors did not provide a sufficient response or evidence to refute these claims. As a result, the scientific accuracy of this paper is not reliable.
Adhering to the international guidelines established by the Committee on Publication Ethics, the Journal has determined these are grounds for retraction.
