Retraction of: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/srep21884, published online 22 February 2016


The Authors have retracted this Article.


After publication, the Authors informed the journal that Fig. 4 contained incorrectly reported results, and the images in Fig. 5 had been published elsewhere. In addition, concerns were raised regarding partial overlap in the flow cytometry plots in Fig. 2F (HMGB1 and HMGB1 + anti-TLR4 groups). The Authors are unable to provide raw data used to produce the figures, and therefore retract this Article.


All Authors agree with this retraction.
