Abstract
Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a common solvent in biological and medical research for dissolving water-insoluble compounds and drugs. However, the impact of DMSO goes beyond its primary function. High-throughput and in vitro assays have uncovered various effects of DMSO in mammalian cells. The present article highlights the biological effects of DMSO on normal and cancerous mammalian cells.
