Retraction of: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-80911-z, published online 26 January 2021

Editors have retracted this Article.

An investigation at the Moffitt Cancer Center confirmed that Figures 2a and 6f of this Article contain multiple instances of overlaps representing different experimental conditions. Original data for Figure 2a was no longer available; the original data for Figure 6f was available and corroborated the concerns about the figure content.

Domenico Coppola, Chung S. Yang, and Mokenge P. Malafa did not respond to the correspondence from Editors about the retraction. The Editors were not able to confirm the contact details for Kazim Husain.
