The authors have retracted this article because of problems with Figure 4 and Figure 1, namely:

Figure 4H (panel H1975 vs pcDNA3.1-NC) overlaps with Figure 1F (panel A549 vs sh-NC) in a different article [1]

Figure 4H (panel H1975 vs pcDNA3.1-NC) overlaps with Figure 5C (panel CAL27, miR-106b-5p mimics + pcDNA3.1/DAB2) in a different article [2]

Figure 1F overlaps with Figure 5b in a different article [3]

The authors have stated that some of the cell biology experiments were performed by external companies. All authors agree with this retraction.
