BackgroundThe first histogenetic concepts favored dural origin of meningioma which was based on its dural attachment and thus meningiomais thought to arise from arachnoidal cap cells (meningiothelial) The micro environment which contains cancerous stem cell, is called cellular environment which is essential for tumor survival. Cancerous stem cell (CSC) is capable of initiating tumor growth and metastasis and stem cell marker are known to used by scientists to isolate and identify certain stem cell.This study aims to describe the stem cell markers CD44, CD73 and CD 105 in meningioma among Sudanese patients and to isolate cancerous stem cells (CSCs) from meningioma tissues samples and test its in-vivo growth in Albino-Wister rats Material and methodsThis is a prospective cross-sectional experimental study done at the National Center of Neurological Sciences (NCNS) Khartoum, from 2019 to 2021. All established cranial meningioma patients were included. Tumor specimens were processed for RNA extraction and PCR. Tumor specimens were processed for RNA extraction and PCR. Twelve tissue samples were further processed for stem cells isolation and identificationTumor genesis of the isolated CSCs was tested through in-vivo application of the cells on brains of Albino Wister rats. The animals were sacrificed 3 months later and slices of the fixed brains were stained with H&E and studied microscopically for histopathology verification of the growing cells and further confirmed by immune-histochemistry using epithelial membrane antigen and progesterone receptor as specific cell markers for meningioma.ResultsA total of 23 meningioma cases were enrolled in the study. All sample expressed CD44, but CD73 and CD 105 expression was variable not on the different subtype, but within the same type .Successful isolation of cultured cells with cardinal features of mesenchymal stem cells was obtained. The implanted cells showed tumor growth consistent histologically and immune-histochemicaly with meningioma.

Separation and interpretation of rebellious Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) originating from the primary tumor or cancer tissue plays a significant role in diagnostics, cancer progression analyses, suitable medicine exploration, and treatment proficiency examination. Cancer metastasis occurs when CTCs spread throughout the body and invade healthy tissues, leading to new tumors in that area. Although a dramatic rate of deaths begins from spreading CTCs around the body, valuable measures have been made to control their development. However, the first step is separating these harmful cells from the bloodstream and investigating their features. Having examined the characteristics of CTCs as cancer’s main strength, researchers can introduce complementary treatments that can affect cancerous cells without damaging the healthy cells. Therefore, according to their unique characteristics, numerous techniques have been established for continuous and fast separation and sorting of CTCs. Nevertheless, few separators enjoy the efficient performance and appropriate accuracy and can be produced in mass numbers due to the available fabrication equipment. Microfabrication advancements enable separators to combine the advantages of active and passive methods in a small-scale platform for probing individual cells and separation purposes. Reduction in reagents, sample volume, analysis time, and less harmfulness to patients are some of the motivations that encourage researchers to employ microfluidic instruments for CTCs separation from other blood cells over the last two decades. However, microfabrication limitations mean effective separators, and the diagnostic option they provide, are not readily available. Addressing these limitations requires optimizing the design and fabrication of separators such that they are reduced in their size and fabrication cost, while also maintaining high-throughput separating capability. The emergence of the Lab-On-a-Chip (LOC) and then Lab-On-a-CD (LOCD) technologies, having more inherent benefits than conventional microfluidic devices, has created new opportunities and become increasingly widespread in recent years. Evidence suggests that employing single methodologies or integrating approaches without sufficient understanding of potential outcomes is unlikely to result in successful diagnostic results. This paper contributes an extensive review of several separation systems, including fundamental theories and experimental details, and describes detailed operating principles and device performance.

Mushrooms have been an invaluable ingredient in terms of food and medicine to humanity since time immemorial. Mushrooms have been shown to be possessing properties such as anti-tumor, antiproliferative, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, anti-diabetic. Traditional Czech republic medicine involved using Piptoporus betulinus in curing colorectal cancer; similarly, fruiting bodies of Inonotus obliquus were employed in Folk medicine in eastern Europe since the 16^th century. The oriental practice of utilizing mushrooms has witnessed an overwhelming attentiveness from the global research fraternity in exploring its wonder substances. Cancer is one of the key problems faced by researchers in finding an efficient medicine without inducing severe health complications. Mushrooms contain a plethora of bioactive compounds involved in tumor inhibition, such as hispolon, lentinan, gannoderic acid, illudin-s, and many more. The current article briefly describes various edible mushrooms with anti-tumorigenic compounds and their effect on the cancer cells of various means.
