Abstract
RETRACTION: Tuñón MJ, Miguel BS, Crespo I, Jorquera F, Santamaría E, Alvarez M, Prieto J, González‐Gallego J. Melatonin attenuates apoptotic liver damage in fulminant hepatic failure induced by the rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus. J Pineal Res 2011;50:38‐45. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1600-079X.2010.00807.xThe above article, published online on 22 October 2010 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor‐in‐Chief, Gianluca Tosini, and John Wiley and Sons Ltd. Following publication, concerns were raised by third parties that portions of Figure 4 are duplicated in Figures 4, 2A, and 1B, respectively, of three other articles by the same author group.1‐3 The authors provided some of the original data, but these were not sufficient to resolve the concerns, and the authors were unable to provide a satisfactory explanation for the concerns. The retraction has been agreed because of concerns that portions of the figure overlap with the authors' previous articles, affecting the interpretation of the data and results presented. The authors disagree with this decision.1. Kretzmann NA, Fillmann H, Mauriz JL, Marroni, CA, Marroni N, González‐Gallego J, Tuñón MJ.
