“…In the present work we focus on the role of KDM4 subfamily members since they have been involved in cancer development for their ability to alter the chromatin’s state and influence gene expression ( García et al, 2016 ). KDM4A, B, C, and D’s expression is tightly regulated in non-neoplastic tissues but often deregulated in several neoplasias such as prostate, liver, bladder, colorectal, squamous cell carcinomas, acute myeloid leukemia, breast, lung and ovarian cancer ( Guerra-Calderas et al, 2015 , 2018 ; Lu et al, 2015 ; Lin et al, 2019 ; Chen et al, 2020 ; Wu et al, 2021 ). KDM4E’s expression has only been detected in testis, however, its physiological role remains unknown ( Hillringhaus et al, 2011 ).…”
