Cancer Stem Cells as a Considerable Barrier in Anti-Cancer-Treatments

Abstract

Today in mankind’s modern society cancer is one of the heterogonous critical leading death causes in the world. Annually many victims of different types of cancer are being recorded throughout the world. Many researchers did many researches and experiments to find the causes and treatment for it. According to the reports it is estimated that more than 10 million deaths were recorded in 2020. One of the challenging studies in cancer research is to examine the role of cancer stem cells in this process and treatment. Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) are a group of tumor cells that can possess tumor growth initiation and increase the bulk populations of non-tumorigenic cancer cell progeny through differentiation. Some of the particular characteristics give them the capability to be resistant to radio and chemotherapies. This mini-review aims to investigate the recent researchers from 2019 to 2022 to get a better view of the function and specific options which can help to act as a barrier in the treatment process and examine good suggestions in order to get more success in the near future.
