Description

An earlier paper on heart cell growth from stem cells has been pulled, this 2026 notice states. The paper had claimed that the ISL1 protein drives stem cells to become heart muscle cells. Doubts arose over three figures, 1, 2, and S1. In one, error bars look too much alike from point to point. In the rest, gel lanes show sharp breaks, and bands in unlike rows look too much alike. The item here is the withdrawal note, and it says why the claims can no longer be trusted.
