Retraction Note: 27-Hydroxycholesterol increases α-synuclein protein levels through proteasomal inhibition in human dopaminergic neurons

The Original Article was published on 03 April 2018

Retraction Note:

The Editors have retracted this article because following the publication of the article, concerns were raised regarding image overlap of ß-actin bands in Figures 5d and 5f. The authors are unable to provide raw images and an investigation by the University of North Dakota has found that Figures 5d and 5f were falsified and source data for the concerned Figures could not be identified.

Therefore, the Editors have lost confidence in the content of this article.

Author, Travis Flick agrees to this retraction. Authors, Jared Schommer, Othman Ghribi and Jonah Lund have not responded to any correspondence from the editor/publisher about this retraction. The Publisher has been unable to get current email addresses for authors, Gurdeep Marwarha and Trevor Schommer.
