This article [1] has been retracted by the editor because author Stanley I Rapoport alerted the editor, and the National Institutes of Health subsequently confirmed, that the data represented by Figures 1B and 2B were falsified. Stanley I Rapoport and Hyung-Wook Kim support this retraction. The other authors have not responded to our correspondence with them about the retraction of their article.
