Abstract
Retraction of ‘A novel TMTP1-modified theranostic nanoplatform for targeted in vivo NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided chemotherapy for cervical cancer’ by Nuernisha Alifu et al., J. Mater. Chem. B, 2022, 10, 506–517, https://doi.org/10.1039/D1TB02481G.
The Royal Society of Chemistry, with the agreement of the named author, hereby wholly retracts this Journal of Materials Chemistry B article due to concerns with the reliability of the data.
The TEM image in the inset in Fig. 1a contains two identical nanoparticles and all nanoparticles are uniform in size and evenly dispersed. An independent expert reviewed this image and concluded that the image was manipulated.
In Fig. S8 there is partial overlap between the two heart images and the two spleen images.
Given the significance of these concerns, the findings presented in this paper are no longer reliable.
The authors were informed about the retraction of the article. Ma Rong responded but did not confirm whether they agreed to retract the article. The other authors have not responded.
