Protective effect of miR-124 on neuroexcitatory toxicity. (A) The relative cell viabilities of primary cultured neurons were evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) assay after NMDA treatment (20 μM for 15 min) (n = 6/group). (B) TUNEL staining was performed in primary cultured neurons after NMDA treatment with different miR-124 levels (scale bar = 50 μm) and quantified (C). Levels of DAPK1, caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, CaMK2, and p-CaMK2 were measured by western blotting (D) and quantitatively analyzed (E). Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 4/group). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 vs. Con, #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 vs. NMDA group.
