Cytokeratin 17 (KRT17, CK17) is an Type I basal cytokeratin that is found in the nail bed, hair follicle, sebaceous glands, squamous epithelia of the skin, esophagus, tonsil and oral mucosa, the urinary bladder, salivary gland, breast, prostate, and respiratory tract. Mutations in this gene result in Jackson-Lawler pachyonychia congenital and steatocystoma multiplex. KRT17 has been implicated in the growth of oral squamous carcinomas through an anti-apoptotic mechanism. It is positive in a variety of different cancers.
