RETRACTED: Redox regulation of resveratrol-mediated switching of death signal into survival signal

Upon due consideration, the Editor-in-Chief fully accepted the Ethics Committee's conclusions and recommendations and, in conjunction with the Associate Editors, and assisted by our publisher, Elsevier, therefore, decided to formally retract these two papers. The Editor-in-Chief wishes it to be noted that Prof. Das was contacted by the journal's Ethics committee for comment, and he firmly denied any wrongdoing whatsoever. Despite Prof. Das' assertions, the journal's Editors feel there is overwhelming evidence to show that both of the above papers published in Free Radical Biology & Medicine contain deliberately false information. In retracting these two papers, it is the Editors' hope to deter other scientists, who may have been unaware of their unreliability, from citing them in the future.
