Following the publication of this article [1], readers drew to our attention that part of the data was unreliable: Figures of this article appeared in other articles (by totally different authors). The authors were requested to provide the raw data and were also asked for an explanation to account for these concerns, however, the Editorial Office hasn’t received any reasonable reply. To make the readers alert, we published an Expression of Concern for this article months ago. Now we completed the investigation and decided to retract this article. Authors were informed of the retraction. We thank the readers for bringing this matter to our attention. We apologize for any inconvenience it may cause.
