Retraction: Broad DNA repair responses in neural injury are associated with activation of the IL ‐6 pathway in cholesterol‐fed rabbits

The above article, published online on 16th October 2009, has been retracted by agreement between the journal ’s Editor-in-Chief, Andrew J. Lawrence, Deputy Editor-in-Chief, Marco A.M. Prado, and John Wiley and Sons Ltd. The retraction has been agreed due to identification of image manipulation and duplication in Figures 1A, 2A, 1C, 1D, 4C, 3A, 4A, 4E, 5A, and 5B. The corresponding author was unable to pr ovide the original unmodified blots and raw data to clarify the concerns upon request. The author's institution has been informed of the concerns, but no response was received. The article is retracted on the basis that it contains data that cannot be retrieved and verified, calling the conclusions into question.ReferenceWu, M., Audet, A., Cusic, J., Seeger, D., Cochran, R.,& Ghribi, O.
