Abstract EN
BioMed Research International has retracted the article titled “Tanshinone IIA Induces Apoptosis in Human Oral Cancer KB Cells through a Mitochondria-Dependent Pathway” [1].
As noted by Amanda Capes-Davis on PubMed Commons, KB cells are cross-contaminated by HeLa and are not oral cancer cells [2].
Therefore, the conclusions cannot be supported.
Tan IIA was already known to induce apoptosis in HeLa cells through a mitochondria-dependent pathway [3].
