Retracted: Genistein mediated histone acetylation and demethylation activates tumor suppressor genes in prostate cancer cells
Abstract
The above article, published online on 22 April 2008 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the authors, the journal Editor in Chief, Prof. Peter Lichter, and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. The retraction has been agreed due to errors identified in Figs, 3, 4, and 5. The concerns about these figures cannot be resolved because the original data can no longer be retrieved.

“NF-jB is an inducible transcription factor that can regulate a diverse number of genes involved in proliferation, apoptosis, inflammation, and the immune response.(14) In most cell types, NF-jB is predominantly a heterodimer composed of the p50 and p65 subunits.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
