Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 4. miR-124 Overexpression Induces Neuronal Differentiation in Human GBM Cells (A) Schematics of doxycycline (Dox)-regulable lentiviral KRAB system based on two vectors with a dsRED reporter gene to track tumor cells and GFP to monitor miR-124 levels. (B) In the absence of Dox, the tetracycline repressor fused to the Kr€uppel-associated box (tTR-KRAB) binds to tetracycline operator (tetO) sequences and suppresses transcription. In the presence of Dox, tTR-KRAB cannot bind tetO, which allows expression of the transgenes (miR-124 and GFP). (C) Quantitative real-time PCR for miR-124 expression in GBM43 and GBM43.miR-124 cultures following Dox treatment (DDCt ± SEM, n = 3, ***p < 0.001; ANOVA Tukey’s post hoc test).

(F) Quantification (means ± SEMs, n = 3, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001; ANOVA Dunnett’s post hoc test) of proliferation (# Cells) following Dox treatment (Dox: 0–10 mg/mL) of GBM43.miR-124 tumorsphere cultures.
