Abstract:
The authors have retracted the article [Hsa-miR-623 suppresses tumor progression in human lung adenocarcinoma, Cell Death & Disease volume 7, page e2388 (2016), doi 10.1038/cddis.2016.260] because it has recently come to their attention that the A549 cells used in this research were contaminated with Hela cells, which may have altered the outcome of their experiment. The conclusions of this article are therefore unreliable. All authors agree to this retraction.
