Retraction: "Icariin attenuates methotrexate chemotherapy-induced bone marrow microvascular damage and bone loss in rats," by Mohammadhossein Hassanshahi, Yu-Wen Su, Samira Khabbazi, Chia-Ming Fan, Qian Tang, Xuesen Wen, Jian Fan, Ke-Ming Chen, Cory J. Xian, J Cell Physiol. 2019; 16549-16561: The above article, published online on 19 February 2019 in Wiley Online Library (https://doi.org/10.1002/jcp.28326), has been retracted by agreement between the authors, the journal's Editor in Chief, Prof. Dr. Gregg Fields, and Wiley Periodicals LLC. The retraction has been agreed after the authors asked to correct their article. The authors admit substantial mistakes during compilation of figures 4 and 6 for this article. The investigation revealed duplication between figure 1A and 3A. Additionally, some image elements of the experimental data of figure 6A were published elsewhere in a different scientific context. Thus, the experiments in this article are considered unreliable and not sufficiently supporting the conclusions.
