Analysis of the effects of miR-124 on apoptosis in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) following oxygen and glucose deprivation by annexin V-FITC/PI double staining.

(A) Control group; (B) miR-124^– group; (C) miR-124⁺ group. A great number of cells were apoptotic in the control and miR-124^– groups. There was a small number of apoptotic cells in the miR-124⁺ group (lower right, Q4: apoptotic cells). (D) Quantification of apoptosis. Bars represent mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, vs. the other two groups (Student's t-test). n = 3.
