This article has been retracted: This article contains duplicated tumor images found in previously published papers, and some overlaps of IHC images (Figure 5) and wound healing images (Figure 8) representing different experimental conditions. Specifically, an tumor image in Figure 1C also appears in Figure 1C of an earlier published paper [1]. A second tumor image in Figure 1C is also duplicated in Figure 2C of a second earlier paper [2]. Therefore, the Editorial decision was made to retract this paper. All authors agreed with the decision.
