Retraction Note: Agmatine protects retinal ganglion cells from hypoxia-induced apoptosis in transformed rat retinal ganglion cell line

The Original Article was published on 02 October 2007

The Editor has retracted this article. Overlap has been detected within the figures of this article, specifically:

  • In Fig. 5A there appears to be overlap between the blots for the 3h pJNK and the 6h pJNK

  • In Fig. 6A the NF-κB (Nucleus) 30min blot appears to overlap with the pNF-κB (cytoplasm) 30 min blot in Fig. 6B

  • In Fig. 6A the pNF-κB (Nucleus) 1h blot appears to overlap with the NF-κB (cytoplasm) 1h blot in Fig. 6B

  • In Fig. 6B the pNF-κB (cytoplasm) 1h blot appears to overlap with the pNF-κB (cytoplasm) 3h blot.

The Editor has therefore lost confidence in the integrity of the results presented in this article. None of the authors responded to any correspondence from the editor about this retraction.
