Prostate cancer is the second most prevalent cancer in men and the sixth leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Age, family history, race, tobacco use, obesity, diet, and circadian disruption are all risk factors for prostate cancer. Epidemiological studies of circadian disruption focus primarily on night shift work. The 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Jeffrey C. Hall, Michael Rosbash, and Michael W. Young for making it possible to study the molecular mechanisms underlying circadian rhythms. The molecular mechanisms between circadian rhythm genes and diseases, including prostate cancer, have been gradually revealed, and these studies hold promise for future clinical application. However, the relationship between the molecular mechanism of circadian rhythm and the development of prostate cancer has not been fully clarified. We observed that a microRNA plays an important role in the regulation of circadian rhythms and prostate cancer proliferation. Our study shows that miR-6883-5p is associated with circadian rhythm and can inhibit AR-V7, thereby suppressing the growth of enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer. Our research provides a potential therapeutic target for enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer and expands the understanding of circadian clock regulation regulatory mechanisms.
