We, the Editor and Publisher of Cancer Management and Research are retracting the published article. Since publication, concerns have been raised about the duplication of images in this article with those from other unrelated articles. Specifically,

• The image from Figure 5D, A549, circCDYL+si-TNRC6A, has been duplicated with the image from Figure 5D, Hep-2, miR-NC from Ye H, Jin Q, Wang X, Li Y. MicroRNA-802 Inhibits Cell Proliferation and Induces Apoptosis in Human Laryngeal Cancer by Targeting cAMP-Regulated Phosphoprotein 19. Cancer Manag Res. 2020;12:419–430. https://doi.org/10.2147/CMAR.S228429 (RETRACTED).

When approached for an explanation, the authors have been unable to address the concerns raised and have not been able to provide sufficient original data from their study. As verifying the validity of published work is core to the integrity of the scholarly record, we are therefore retracting the article. The authors listed in this publication have been informed.

We have been informed in our decision-making by our editorial policies and the COPE guidelines.

The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as “Retracted”.
