Keratin 17 (KRT17) expression promotes the proliferation and invasion of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and mutations inTP53have been reported in 65% to 85% of OSCC cases. We studied the correlation between KRT17 expression andTP53mutants. Ca9-22 cells, which exhibit low KRT17 expression, carried mutant p53 (p53R248W) and p53R248W knockdown promoted KRT17 expression. p53R248W knockdown in Ca9-22 cells promoted migration and invasion activity. In contrast, in HSC3 cells, which have p53 nonsense mutations and exhibit high KRT17 expression, the overexpression of p53R248W decreased KRT17 expression, cell size, proliferation, and migration and invasion activities. In addition, p53R248W significantly suppressedMMP2mRNA expression and enzyme activity. Moreover, s.c. and orthotopic xenografts were generated from p53R248W- or p53R248Q-expressing HSC3 cells. Tumors formed from p53R248W-expressing HSC3 cells grew more slowly and had a lower Ki-67 index than those derived from the control or p53R248Q-expressing HSC3 cells. Finally, the survival rate of the mice inoculated with p53R248W-expressing HSC3 cells was significantly higher than that of the control mice. These results indicate that the p53R248W mutant suppresses proliferation and invasion activity through the suppression of KRT17 expression. We propose that OSCC with p53R248W-expressing cells may be classified as a new OSCC type that has a good prognosis.
