Abstract

Enzalutamide (Enz) is commonly utilized as the initial treatment strategy for advanced prostate cancer (PCa). However, a notable subset of patients may experience resistance to Enz, resulting in reduced effectiveness. Utilizing Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases, we identified CBX2 as a crucial factor in mediating resistance to Enz, primarily due to its inhibitory effect on the P53 signaling pathway. Silencing of CBX2 using small interfering RNA (siRNA) led to elevated levels of P53 expression in LNCaP cells. This indicates that CBX2 may have a critical effect on PCa Enz resistance and could serve as a promising therapeutic target for individuals with Enz resistance.
