have requested retraction on the following basis:
The authors are sorry to say that in the further research they found that the PPAR-?, Runx2, and Mfn2 trends in the rADMSCs fiber-forming ability test in this paper were incorrect, they repeated verification of the entire study, and they found that there are problems with the conclusions of this manuscript. In this case, they have no choice but to publish a retraction to avoid misleading other researchers.

The authors sincerely apologize for this mistake.
