Changes in mitotic indices in roots of Secale exposed to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).

Revisiting optical clearing with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).

Functional optical characterization of disease progression and response to therapy suffers from loss of spatial resolution and imaging depth due to scattering. Here we report on the ability of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) alone to reduce the optical scattering of skin. We observed a threefold reduction in the scattering of skin with topical DMSO application. With an in vivo window chamber model, w...

Behavioural effects of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO): changes in sleep architecture in rats.

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an efficient solvent for water-insoluble compounds, widely used in biological studies and as a vehicle for drug therapy, but few data on its neurotoxic or behavioural effects is available. The aim of this work is to explore DMSO's effects upon sleep/wake states. Twenty male rats were sterotaxically prepared for polysomnography. Four concentrations of DMSO (5%, 10%, ...

Intravesical dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for interstitial cystitis--a practical approach.

OBJECTIVES To provide a brief overview of intravesical dimethly sulfoxide (DMSO) therapy for interstitial cystitis and offer a practical approach to patient treatment. METHODS A review of the literature and a summation of the experience with treatment of > 300 patients with DMSO at the Interstitial Cystitis Clinic, New England Medical Center. RESULTS DMSO is helpful in a significant number ...

DFT study of dimers of dimethyl sulfoxide in gas phase

Density functional (DFT) calculations at M05-2x/aug-cc-pVDZ level were used to analyze the interactions between dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) dimers. The structures obtained have been analyzed with the Atoms in Molecules (AIMs) and Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) methodologies. Four minima were located on the potential energy surface of the dimers. Three types of interactions are observed, CH•••O, CH•••...
