Loss of miR-124a has been attributed to hypermethylation while other studies have shown miR-124a to be regulated by the repressor-element-1-silencing transcription factor (REST,also known as neuron-restrictive silencing factor).Hypermethylation of miR-124a was observed in 82% of GBM patient specimens (n=56). In vitro miR-124a expression levels also increased after treatment of several patientderived cell lines with 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine.
