Retraction notice to "Epidermal growth factor receptor promotes high-fructose nonalcoholic fatty liver disease by inducing mitochondrial fission in zebrafish" [Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications 652 (2023) 112-120].

Abstract

This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/policies/article-withdrawal). This article has been retracted at the request of the Authors. The authors regret that after the publication of this article, they discovered that though they had observed that short-term treatment with EGFR inhibitors lapatinib and PD153035 could reduce liver fat accumulation, after long-term treatment, lipid accumulation still appeared in fatty liver accumulation, which is not significantly different from the model group. Therefore, they requested to withdraw the manuscript first to further clarify the pathogenesis of EGFR in fatty liver.
