This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief and authors. Following the publication of the above article, the Editor was notified by a concerned reader that the authors supplied duplicated images. Specifically, that in Fig. 5 A, both FACS panels are identical and in Fig 5E, two different proteins (HK2 and PDK1) have the same western blot. After checking the data in relation with Fig. 5A and E, the authors have confirmed that the two pictures indeed have the problems of duplication. The authors reported that this problem came from the authors’ unintentional behavior, which may be due to a copy and paste error in the manner of image processing. The authors sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to our Editors and readers. Due to this duplication error, the authors and Editor have made the decision to retract this paper.
