The Editor has retracted this article. Concerns were raised about a number of the images presented in Figure 2, Figure 10 and Figure 11. The authors provided raw data; however, as there were inconsistencies in these data the Editor no longer has confidence in the results and conclusions presented. In addition, the authors have not provided evidence of appropriate ethical oversight of this study. Vikas Kumar disagrees with this retraction. Danish Ahmed, Amita Verma, Girja Shankar Shukla and Manju Sharma have not responded to correspondence from the Editor about this retraction.
