Here, it is reported that KDM5C, a repressive histone demethylase, unexpectedly activates estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)‐target genes, and meanwhile suppresses type I interferons (IFNs) and IFN‐stimulated genes (ISGs) to promote ERα‐positive breast cancer cell growth and tumorigenesis. The gene discussed is IFNA1; the disease is breast carcinoma.
