Abstract
K. Lin, C. Chiu, W. Kuo, D. Ju, C. Shen, R. Chen, C. Lin, V. P. Viswanadha, J. Liu, R. S. Huang, and C. Huang, "The Preventive Effects of Edible Folic Acid on Cardiomyocyte Apoptosis and Survival in Early Onset Triple-transgenic Alzheimer's Disease Model Mice," Environmental Toxicology 33, no. 1 (2017): 83-92, https://doi.org/10.1002/tox.22498. The above article, published online on 25 October 2017 in Wiley Online Library (https://wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal's Editor-in-Chief, April Rodd, and Wiley Periodicals LLC. A third party reported on PubPeer [1] that bands in Figures 2, 3, and 4 appeared to have been duplicated in other articles and preprints [Chiang et al. 2016 (https://doi.org/10.3402/fnr.v60.31417); Bai et al. 2019 (https://doi.org/10.1101/823088); and Asokan et al. 2019 (https://doi.org/10.1186/s12906-019-2700-8)]. Each article describes these bands as different samples and many show additional blots that were not included in this article. Additionally, the GAPDH control bands in Figures 2 and 3 in this article also appear to have been duplicated. The retraction has been agreed to because the evidence of data duplication and manipulation fundamentally compromises the editors' confidence in the results presented in this article. The authors were informed of the retraction.
