Abstract

Expression of Concern for ‘Musa paradisiaca inflorescence induces human colon cancer cell death by modulating cascades of transcriptional events’ by Arun K. B. et al., Food Funct., 2018, 9, 511–524, https://doi.org/10.1039/C7FO01454F.


The Royal Society of Chemistry is publishing this expression of concern in order to alert readers that concerns have been raised regarding the integrity of the β-actin and BCL2 bands in Fig. 5. The authors have requested a correction but are not able to provide the full raw data in triplicate. An expression of concern will continue to be associated with the article until the authors can perform additional experiments and provide conclusive evidence regarding the reliability of the reported data.
