Following the publication of this article, the authors noticed an error in Fig. 5c. In the miR-132-3p mimics. This does not affect the results and conclusions of the article. The correct version of Fig. 5 can be found below.

The role of miR-9-5p, miR-124-3p, and miR-132-3p in the regulation of proliferation and apoptosis in Tsc2−/− cells. a CCK-8 assays were performed 24, 48, 72, and 96 h after the transfection of Tsc2−/− cells with miR-9-5p, miR-124-3p, or miR-132-3p mimics or the scrambled control. b CCK-8 assays were performed 24, 48, 72, and 96 h after the transfection of Tsc2−/− cells with miR-9-5p, miR-124-3p, or miR-132-3p inhibitors or the negative control. c, d Tsc2−/− cells were transfected with equal doses of miR-9-5p, miR-124-3p, or miR-132-3p mimics or the scrambled control. The cell apoptosis profiles were analyzed by flow cytometry. The bi-parametric histogram shows cells in early (bottom right quadrant) and late (top right quadrant) apoptotic states. Viable cells are double negative (bottom left quadrant). c Representative image. d Quantitative analysis. e, f Tsc2−/− cells were transfected with equal doses of miR-9-5p, miR-124-3p, or miR-132-3p inhibitors or the negative control.
