RETRACTED: Suppressors of Cytokine Signaling 2 and 3 Diametrically Control Macrophage Polarization

Having discovered discrepancies within the scatter plots in Figures 3B and 4B of this manuscript, the authors have had the data investigated by two independent panels convened by Queen's University Belfast. The panels concluded that the data have been inappropriately presented but found no evidence of intentional misconduct. In addition, the original data are unavailable, and therefore the authors have decided to retract the paper. These figures showed altered M1-like and M2-like macrophage phenotypes in Socs3 Lyz2cre and Socs2 −/− mice after LPS-induced septic shock and the impact of the macrophages on regulatory T cell recruitment when they were adoptively transferred into Foxp3 GFP mice. The authors stand by the validity of the other data within this paper and deeply regret any inconvenience caused by this retraction.
