RETRACTION: Z. Hu , X. Guo , Q. Yu , L. Qiu , J. Li , K. Ying , C. Guo and J. Zhang , "Down-Regulation of Adenine Nucleotide Translocase 3 and Its Role in Camptothecin-Induced Apoptosis in Human Hepatoma QGY7703 Cells," FEBS Letters 583, no. 2 (2009): 383-388, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.febslet.2008.12.029. The above article, published online on 25 December 2008 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the authors; the journal Editor-in-Chief, Michael Brunner; the Federation of European Biochemical Societies; and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. The retraction has been agreed upon following concerns raised by a third party. An investigation identified several unexpected similarities between the FACS 6h and 12h panels shown in Figure 1A. Duplication of the β-actin bands between Figures 2 and 3A, and between Figures 2 and 4A, was also identified. Due to the time that has elapsed since publication, the authors were unable to provide any original data and stated that the duplications resulted from unintentional errors. In light of these issues, the editors consider the results and conclusions to be unreliable.
