EXPRESSION OF CONCERN: B. Wu, X. Wang, R. Yu, and X. Xue, “ CircWHSC1 Serves as a Prognostic Biomarker and Promotes Malignant Progression of Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Via miR-590-5p/SOX5 Axis,” Environmental Toxicology 38, no. 10 (2023): 2440–2449, https://doi.org/10.1002/tox.23879.
This Expression of Concern is for the above article, published online on 7 July 2023 in Wiley Online Library (http://wileyonlinelibrary.com), and has been issued by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, April Rodd; and Wiley Periodicals LLC. Following publication, concerns were raised regarding the animal experimental data and Figure 2. Discrepancies were noted because the figure shows data beyond the “4 weeks after implantation” described for euthanasia in the main text. Additionally, the authors did not respond to the publisher's request to provide the original data, the ethics approval codes, and proof of patient consent. In the absence of the original data, the journal and publisher are unable to fully investigate the discrepancies. Therefore, the journal has decided to issue an Expression of Concern to inform and alert readers.

The above article, published online on 22 March 2023, in Wiley Online Library (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, April Rodd; and Wiley Periodicals LLC. Following publication, duplications were noted in Figures 6G; in multiple panels within Figures 6F and 5O; in multiple panels between Figures 2D and 5O; and between Figures 4J and 5O. Additionally, the western blots in Figure 6H were duplicated from an earlier publication by different authors (Tang et al., 2020 [https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.103833]); Figure 3B is duplicated from an earlier publication by different authors (Zhou et al., 2020 [https://doi.org/10.2147/CMAR.S276297]); and Figure 5E is duplicated from an earlier publication by different authors (Yang et al., 2019 [https://doi.org/10.1186/s11658-019-0192-7]). The retraction has been agreed to because of evidence that significant portions of multiple figures were duplicated, affecting the interpretation of the data and results presented.
The authors agree with the retraction.
