Retraction notice to: The role of ubiquitination in hepcidin- independent and hepcidin-dependent degradation of ferroportin (Cell Metabolism (2011) 14, (635-646) DOI: 10.1016/j.cmet.2011.09.008)

摘要

We, the authors, wish to retract "Decoupling Ferritin Synthesis from Free Cytosolic Iron Results in Ferritin Secretion" by De Domenico et al. (Cell Metabolism 13, 57-67; January 5, 2011;10.1016/j.cmet.2010.12.003) and "The Role of Ubiquitination in Hepcidin-lnde-pendent and Hepcidin-Dependent Degradation of Ferroportin" by De Domenico et al. (Cell Metabolism 14, 635-646; November 2, 2011; 10.1016/j.cmet.2011.09.008) because a number of errors have been detected in the assembly of the figures, and some of the original data were inappropriately removed from the laboratory. We stand by the validity of our studies; the data are reproducible, and the conclusions were not affected by the errors. However, we believe that the most responsible course of action is to retract the paper. We are preparing a new expanded version of this study for future submission. We deeply apologize to the community for the inconvenience.
