The Editor-in-Chief has retracted this article [1]. After publication an investigation by the INRAe Research Integrity Board raised concerns about several aspects of the study. Specifically:-
that Lactobacillus casei BL23 harboring an empty vector was used instead of wild-type BL23 without a plasmid to perform mice experiments analyzed in Figs. 7 and 8
-
that the FACS analysis presented in Fig. 7 was conducted on two cytometers instead of one as described in the methods
-
that the tissue used for RNA extraction and qPCR may have been mislabeled as “colon” instead of “ileum”; these data are presented in Fig. 8
