Hormone-sensitive cancers can be influenced by estrogens, a process usually mediated through the estrogen receptor (ER). Tissue factor pathway inhibitor type 2 (TFPI-2) is a Kunitz-type serine protease inhibitor involved in regulating the extracellular matrix. The present study demonstrates that the expression of TFPI-2 can be induced by estrogens. Breast cancer data from GOBO displayed increased levels of TFPI-2 and increased survival in patients with ERα+ tumors. Treatment of MCF7 cells (ERα+) with 17β-estradiol (E2) or 17α-ethinyl estradiol (EE2) increased TFPI-2 mRNA and protein levels. This effect was mitigated with fulvestrant and by knocking down ERα, indicating that estrogen mediated TFPI-2 induction was through ERα. Upon knock down of DNA cytosine-5 methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) or lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) in MCF7 cells, reduced effect of E2 on TFPI-2 mRNA levels was observed. Our data thus suggest that estrogen induced TFPI-2 expression in MCF7 cells is mediated by ERα and also by the action of LSD1.
