E47 or TCF3 is upregulated in gastric cancer.
PMID:22564737
E47 or TCF3 or EA2 is upregulated in prostate cancer.
It could be an upstream regulator of Id1 and c-Myc which are highly expressed in prostate cancer.
It could acts as a tumor promoter at least in prostate cancer.

Snai1, Snai2, E47 transcription factors induce common and specific genetic programs, supporting a differential role of the factors in tumor progression and invasion.

Snai1 and TCF3 (E47) upregulate both mRNA and protein level of ID1
This upregulation depends on SP1 or AP1 co-transcription factors
Erk contributes to the recruitment or assembly of proteins to Id-1 promoter

HMGA2 directly binds to the SNAIL1 promoter and acts as a transcriptional regulator of SNAIL1 expression.
HMGA2 cooperates with SMAD3 and SMAD4 to execute a dramatic super-induction of the SNAIL1 promoter.
Same results were obtained with SNAI2, ZEB1, ZEB2 and TWIST1
HMGA2 cooperates with TGFB1 signaling to represse ID2 transcriptomal expression

Differential roles for Snail and E47 (both are E-cadherin repressors) in tumour progression:
Snail is implicated in promoting the initial invasion
E47 plays an active role in tumour cell growth by promoting angiogenesis.
