RETRACTED: MicroRNA-16-5p/BTG2 axis affects neurological function, autophagy and apoptosis of hippocampal neurons in Alzheimer's disease.

This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/withdrawalpolicy). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief as there are concerns about the reliability of the results. Concerns have been raised about the western blot bands in Figures 6 B + D having the same eyebrow shaped phenotype as found in many other publications as detailed here (https://pubpeer.com/publications/B32F93859FBAA13471ED0FFCA5BCB6). The journal requested the corresponding author to comment on these concerns and send the raw data, however the author was not able to provide uncropped images of the original gels. The Editor-in-Chief therefore no longer has confidence in the data and conclusions of this study. Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
