Therefore, we explored the correlation between serum miR-589-5p and postoperative BCR in PCa patients. Sixty PCa patients who underwent radical prostatectomy were included, and another 60 matched healthy male volunteers served as the normal control. Serum miR-589-5p was detected by RT-qPCR, and then its correlation with clinicopathological features of PCa patients was analyzed. Our results showed that serum miR-589-5p in PCa patients was decreased compared with normal control, and was associated with invasive clinicopathologic features, including high preoperative PSA, late pathological staging, poor Gleason score, lymph node metastasis, and BCR. In addition, reduced miR-589-5p was linked with shorter BCR-free survival and had prognostic application in PCa patients’ BCR-free survival. Our results indicated that miR-589-5p is suppressed in PCa patients with postoperative BCR, which has a clinical application to be a biomarker.
