Predicted targets of all microRNAs modulated by Ngf at each time point—from 1 to 240 h—were retrieved and mapped into the KEGG Pathway database through DIANA miR-Path software; only pathways with p value ≤ 0.05 were retained. Pathways relevant to nervous system and neurons are shown; the number of Ngf-modulated miRs targeting a given pathway and the numbers of genes that are targeted in that pathway are also indicated
