Withdrawal Notice

This article was originally published in Aging Advance Online Publications on November 4, 2020.

Concerns were raised at that time about overlap between data in Figures 1D, 8A and 8B of this article and Figures in an unrelated retracted article (https://www.dovepress.com/cr_data/article_fulltext/s268000/268222/img/CMAR_A_268222_O_ F0007g.jpg / https://doi.org/10.2147/CMAR.S268222 ). The article was investigated, and the editorial decision was made to withdraw the article entirely in compliance with Aging's withdrawal policy. The institution affiliated with the published Aging article was notified about this action. This article will not appear internally in Aging or any external indexes or archives.

WITHDRAWN: Transcriptional regulation of miR-483-3p mediated by IL-6/STAT3 axis promoted epithelial-mesenchymal transition and tumor stemness in glioma

Figure 7. IL6/STAT3 axis activation increased miR-483-3p expression. (A, D) qRT-PCR analysis showed the expression level of miR-483-3p in U251 and U87 cells after treatment of STAT3 phosphorylation inhibitor. Data are mean ± SEM; one-way ANOVA was used for the statistical analysis. n=5 independent cell cultures. (B, E) Western bolt analysis showed protein levels of p-STAT3 and total STAT3 in U251 and U87 cells. Data are mean ± SEM; one-way ANOVA was used for the statistical analysis. n=5 independent cell cultures. (C, F) qRT-PCR analysis showed the expression level of miR-483-3p in U251 and U87 cells after IL-6 overexpression and neutralization and STAT3 inhibition. Data are mean ± SEM; one-way ANOVA was used for the statistical analysis. n=5 independent cell cultures. **P<0.05.
