CDK6 is upregulated and may be a potential therapeutic target in enzalutamide-resistant castration-resistant prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is still the first-line treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). However, after a certain period of therapy, primary PCa inevitably progresses into castration-resistant PCa (CRPC). Enzalutamide (Enz) is an androgen receptor (AR) signal inhibitor which can delay the progression of CRPC and increase survival of patients with metastatic CRPC. However, the mechanisms involved in enzalutamide-resistant (EnzR) CRPC are still controversial. In the study, we used bioinformatic methods to find potential genes that correlated with the occurrence of EnzR CRPC.

Methods

We collected RNA sequencing data of the EnzR CRPC cell line LNCaP (EnzR LNCaP) from GSE44905, GSE78201, and GSE150807. We found the hub genes from the three datasets. Then we teste
