RETRACTED: Glucose transporter-1 gene expression is associated with pancreatic cancer invasiveness and MMP-2 activity

Surgery. 2004 Sep;136(3):548-56. doi: 10.1016/j.surg.2004.05.032.

Abstract

This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/withdrawalpolicy). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editors-in-Chiefs, because an investigation by Harvard Medical School and the Brigham and Women’s Hospital has concluded that Figure 3 is invalid and no underlying research data are available to resolve the discrepancies or validate the reported results.
