To the Editors of Brazilian Journal of Biology,
I would like to ask for the retraction of the article: Derivation of new Brazilian lineages of human embryonic stem cells under physiological oxygen conditions. Georges JA, Vergani N, Fraga AM, Fonseca SA, Fujihara LS, Albuquerque MC, Castro FJ, Silva IS,Pereira LV . Braz J Biol. 2015 Nov 24. pii: S1519-69842015005105121.
It was submitted without consent or any knowledge from the following authors: Vergani N, Fraga AM, Fonseca SA, Fujihara LS, Albuquerque MC, Castro FJ, Silva IS, Pereira LV ; and all the data described had already been published in: Aberrant patterns of X chromosome inactivation in a new line of human embryonic stem cells established in physiological oxygen concentrations. de Oliveira Georges JA, Vergani N, Fonseca SA, Fraga AM, de Mello JC, Albuquerque MC, Fujihara LS, Pereira LV . Stem Cell Rev. 2014 Aug;10(4):472-9. doi: 10.1007/s12015-014-9505-4.
