Retraction: NRH:Quinone oxidoreductase 2-deficient mice are highly susceptible to radiation-induced B-cell lymphomas (Clinical Cancer Research (2009) 15 (1534-1542) DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-08-1783)

This article (1) is being retracted at the request of the editors. Following an institutional review by the University of Maryland (Baltimore, MD), it was determined that the p53 bands in Fig. 4B appeared identical to bands labeled as "Bax" in a previously published article (2). The authors independently contacted the Journal and offered to run repeat experiments; the repeat experiments partially supported the original findings. Because the original data is not available for review and to ensure that the research record is correct, the Clinical Cancer Research editors have decided to retract the article. A copy of this retraction notice was sent to the last known e-mail addresses for all three authors, none of whom responded.
