Hyperglycemia and microRNAs in prostate cancer.

miRNA dysregulations can occur in hyperglycemic PCa patients as compared to noncancer controls who left hyperglycemia untreated. Hyperglycemia can consistently promote the expression of miR-375 and miR-182-5p. Uncontrolled hyperglycemic state could contribute to the creation of a suitable microenvironment for later PCa development by promoting gene expression.
