Age-dependent increase in desmosterol restores DRM formation and membrane-related functions in cholesterol-free DHCR24(-/-) mice. Neurochemical Research (34, 1167-82).

摘要

Dear Dr. Lajtha: We received your email concerning republishing data in the Kuehnle et al., paper published in Neurochemical Research (34, 1167-1182). After careful review of the raw data, we indeed found that some Western blots shown had been used in a prior publication (Crameri et al., EMBO J., 25, 432-443). We cannot explain this error and very much regret this oversight. As a result, we propose to retract the publication in Neurochemical Research. I informed the coworkers and they all agreed with this decision. We sincerely apologize for our mistake and any inconvenience this might cause for the journal.
