After the publication of this article, concerns were raised about the integrity of some of the data
presented. Specifically, partial duplication of images within Figure 2A was observed. Figure 6A
and 6B were found to contain undeclared splicing of images and repetitive elements between
panels. When asked to comment on the above the corresponding author stated that the
original data is not available for review and requested retraction of the article. As the concerns
raised about the figures can not be addressed, the article has been retracted.
