Abstract
Retraction of ‘Structural characterization of Momordica charantia L. (Cucurbitaceae) oligopeptides and the detection of their capability in non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells: induction of apoptosis’ by Jiao Dong et al., RSC Adv., 2019, 9, 8300–8309, https://doi.org/10.1039/C9RA00090A.
The Royal Society of Chemistry hereby wholly retracts this RSC Advances article due to a significant amount of unattributed text overlap throughout the article, and particularly in the Results and Discussion sections, with a paper by Hongyu Li et al. in Frontiers in Pharmacology that was not cited in the article.1
Jiao Dong, Xianxin Zhang, Chunxiao Qu, Xuedong Rong and Jie Liu oppose the retraction. Yiqing Qu has been informed but has not responded to any correspondence regarding the retraction.
