Specifically: It appears there are several potential image overlaps between Figs. 2E and 4E of this article, despite the authors providing a correction to Fig. 2 [1]. Further potential image overlap has been alleged between Figs. 1D and 6E of [2] by some of the same authors. Potential image overlap between 4B and 4B of [3] by some of the same authors. The authors were unable to provide raw images and evidence of ethical approval. Therefore, the Editor has lost confidence in the data presented here. All authors agree to this retraction.
