Abstract The effectiveness of proteasome inhibitors against solid tumors is limited as the emergence resistance rapid. Although many mechanisms have been proposed and verified, no definite answer has given, highlighting complexity resistant phenotype. In this study, a Bortezomib-resistant prostate cancer cell line created, broad-spectrum signaling pathway analysis performed to identify differences adaptations cells exhibit. Our findings highlight upregulation activation Nf-κB, STAT3, cJun, Elk1 transcription factors in subsequent evasion apoptosis induction autophagy, which constantly activated substitutes role ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). Additionally, assessment intracellular reactive oxygen species confirms their downregulation, theorized be consequence metabolic changes, increased autophagic flux, antioxidative enzyme action. results study potential therapeutic targeting key kinases factors, participating main pathways gene regulation cells, that could re-sensitize inhibitors, thus surpassing current limitations.
