This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). This article has been retracted at the request of the Authors. An anonymous reader made the authors aware of potential errors in the presentation and the experimental design for the Western blot data in Figure 3. Upon thorough investigation the authors concluded that in fact, in addition to an honest error (wrong image selected for inclusion into the article), the experimental design was not state-of-the-art in that the loading controls were run on parallel gels rather than on the gels to be probed for iNOS and collagen II. Therefore, in order to avoid any potentially wrong conclusions, the authors decided to retract the article, to confirm the data in a separate series of experiments and to submit the manuscript again after proper confirmation of the results and conclusions. The authors thank the anonymous reader, who spotted this error, and apologize for any inconvenience caused.
