N. Aladdin and S. A. Ghareib, "Vitamin D3 Exerts a Neuroprotective Effect in Metabolic Syndrome Rats: Role of BDNF/TRKB/Akt/GS3Kβ Pathway," Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology 38, no. 12 (2024): e70082, https://doi.org/10.1002/jbt.70082. The above article, published online on 09 December 2024 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Hari K. Bhat; and Wiley Periodicals, LLC. The retraction has been agreed upon following concerns raised by a third party regarding data reuse between this article and two other articles previously published elsewhere by the same authors. An investigation confirmed that there are substantial overlaps among the three papers. The authors provided some supporting data and explained that the three studies were related, and that data from a limited number of animals were shared to confirm the disease model. However, analysis of the data showed that the overlaps were not restricted to disease model validation. The editors have therefore lost confidence in the results presented in this article and consider the conclusions to be invalid. The authors disagree with the retraction. Show less
