[Retracted] SB-T-121205, a next-generation taxane, enhances apoptosis and inhibits migration/invasion in MCF-7/PTX cells.

Following the publication of this paper, and subsequently to a corrigendum that was published to take account of errors that had been made concerning the Transwell invasion assay data in Fig. 4B (doi: 10.3892/ijo.2022.5463), it was drawn to the Editor's attention by a concerned reader that the western blots shown in Figs. 3C and 6B shared the same control data; moreover, potential anomalies were identified in the flow cytometric plots shown in Fig. 2A. Although the authors proposed to publish a corrigendum to account for these errors, including new data after having performed certain of the experiments again, given the number of problems that have been identified concerning the assembly of various of the figures in the published paper, the Editor of International Journal of Oncology has decided not to publish a further corrigendum, and has, in fact, determined that this paper should be retracted from the Journal on account of an overall lack of confidence in the originally presented data. The Editor apologizes to the readership for any inconvenience caused. [International Journal of Oncology 50: 893-902, 2017; DOI: 10.3892/ijo.2017.3871].
