Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), one of the 10 most common types of neoplasms in the US, constitutes ~90% of all cases of oral malignancies. Chemoresistance and metastasis are difficult to avoid during the course of treatment, leading to a poor prognosis and a high mortality rate for patients with OSCC. Autophagy, a critical conserved cellular process, has been reported to be highly associated with the regulation of chemoresistance and metastasis of cancer cells. The present study investigated the role of karyopherin α2 (KPNA2), a member of the importin α family, which may serve an important role in p53 nucleocytoplasmic transport in the process of OSCC autophagy. In the CAL-27, SCC-15 and Tca8113 OSCC cell lines, we observed that the downregulation of KPNA2 suppressed cell migration and cisplatin resistance, using wound-healing, Transwell and CCK-8 assays. Additionally, the results of western blot analysis and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis indicated that the knockdown of KPNA2 inhibited autophagy. We confirmed that the inhibition of autophagy with anti-autophagy agents decreased the migration and cisplatin resistance of OSCC cells. We hypothesized that the suppression of cell migration and cisplatin resistance induced by KPNA2 knockdown may be associated with the inhibition of autophagy. To identify the underlying mechanism, further experiments determined that KPNA2 affects the level of autophagy via regulating the p53 nuclear import. Thus, the present study demonstrated that the function of KPNA2 in the process of autophagy may be p53-dependent, and by regulating the translocation of p53, KPNA2 can support autophagy to promote the chemoresistance and metastasis of OSCC cells.
