Abstract
⺠We identified NGF-regulated miRNAs in PC12 cells by microarray analysis. ⺠miR-221 overexpression induced and enhanced neuronal differentiation. ⺠Knockdown of miR-221 attenuated NGF-induced neuronal differentiation. ⺠miR-221 overexpression decreased protein expression of Foxo3a and Apaf-1. ⺠miR-221 is involved in neuronal differentiation and protection against apoptosis.
