Abstract
CD73 (ecto-5'-nucleotidase), a cell surface enzyme hydrolyzing AMP to adenosine, was lately demonstrated to play a direct role in tumor progression including regulation of tumor vascularization. It was also shown to stimulate tumor macrophage infiltration. Interstitial adenosine, accumulating in solid tumors due to CD73 enzymatic activity, is recognized as a main mediator regulating the production of pro- and anti-angiogenic factors, but the engagement of specific adenosine receptors in tumor progression in vivo is still poorly researched. We have analyzed the role of high affinity adenosine receptors A1, A2A, and A3 in B16F10 melanoma progression using specific agonists (CCPA, CGS-21680 and IB-MECA, respectively). We limited endogenous extracellular adenosine background using CD73 knockout mice treated with CD73 chemical inhibitor, AOPCP (adenosine α,β-methylene 5’-diphosphate). Activation of any adenosine receptor significantly inhibited B16F10 melanoma growth but only at its early stage. At 14th day of growth, the decrease in tumor neovascularization and MAPK pathway activation induced by CD73 depletion was reversed by all agonists. Activation of A1AR primarily increased angiogenic activation measured by expression of VEGF-R2 on tumor blood vessels. However, mainly A3AR activation increased both the microvessel density and expression of pro-angiogenic factors. All agonists induced significant increase in macrophage tumor infiltration, with IB-MECA being most effective. This effect was accompanied by substantial changes in cytokines regulating macrophage polarization between pro-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic phenotype. Our results demonstrate an evidence that each of the analyzed receptors has a specific role in the stimulation of tumor angiogenesis and confirm significantly more multifaceted role of adenosine in its regulation than was already observed. They also reveal previously unexplored consequences to extracellular adenosine signaling depletion in recently proposed anti-CD73 cancer therapy.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the potential to differentiate into cells of mesodermal origin such as osteoblasts, adipocytes, myocytes, and chondrocytes. They possess an immunosuppressive effect, which makes them a viable cell population for the cell-based therapy of treatment-resistant immune diseases. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) have been demonstrated to have the ability to acquire the properties of subcutaneous adipose tissue particularly easily, and cryopreservation is currently performed as a routine method for preserving ASCs to safely acquire large numbers of cells. However, many studies have reported that cellular activity after freezing and thawing may be affected by the solutions used for cryopreservation. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is commonly used as a cryopreservation medium as it diffuses into the cell through the plasma membrane and protects the cells from the damage caused by freezing. As substitutes for DMSO or animal-derived serum, cell banker series, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), sericin and maltose, and methyl cellulose (MC) have been investigated for their clinical applications. It is critical to develop a reliable cell cryopreservation protocol for regenerative medicine using MSCs.

Abstract
Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is routinely used in the laboratory as a solvent and vehicle for organic molecules. Although it has been used in previous studies involving myeloid cells and macrophages, we are unaware of data demonstrating the effects of DMSO alone on osteoclast development. Recently, we were using DMSO as a vehicle and included a non-vehicle control. Surprisingly, we observed a marked change in osteoclast development, and therefore designed this study to examine the effects of DMSO on osteoclast development. Osteoclasts were generated from two sources: bone marrow macrophages and an osteoclast progenitor cell line. Cells were cultured with DMSO for various durations and at differing concentrations and mature, multinucleated (>3 nuclei) TRAP(+) cells were assessed in terms of cell number, cell surface area, and number of nuclei/cell. Osteoclast surface area increased in 5 μM DMSO to a mean of 156,422 pixels from a mean of 38,510 pixels in control culture, and subsequently decreased in 10 μM DMSO to a mean of 18,994 pixels. With serial addition of DMSO over 5 d, a significant increase in mean surface area, and number of nuclei/cell was also observed, while the opposite was true when DMSO was serially removed from culture. These findings show that DMSO exerts a marked effect on osteoclast differentiation. Since many investigators use DMSO to solubilize compounds for treatment of osteoclasts, caution is warranted as altering DMSO concentrations may have a profound effect on the final data, especially if osteoclast differentiation is being assessed.

Abstract
The clinical routine use of bone allograft transplants dates back to the discovery that grafts devitalized by freezing bear a reduced antigenicity. Graft failures, caused by a host versus graft reaction, however, remain a clinical problem. Previous investigations on pancreatic islet allografts revealed improved survival and biological function when fast cryopreservation (-70 degrees C/min) was performed in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The aim of this study was to determine the effect of fast freezing using DMSO on the biological function of osteochondral tissues. Organ culture was performed with neonatal femora of mice, untreated, rapidly frozen (-70 degrees C/min) with DMSO, or frozen without DMSO. After the culture, tissue morphology, cellular proliferation, osteoblast function, osteoclasts, and the presence of antigen-presenting cells were investigated. In untreated control femora histology appeared normal and proliferating and collagen-synthesizing osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and B-cells and macrophages were present. In frozen femora (with and without DMSO) a disintegration of the periosteum and the epiphyseal growth plate were observed and no active osteoblasts could be detected. Osteoclasts were partially detached from the bone surface. Cell proliferation was fully blocked in femora frozen in the absence of DMSO, while freezing in the presence of DMSO preserved cell proliferation in the medullary canal. The proliferating cells do not express epitopes present on the cells of the B-cell or macrophage lineages. Although the biological function of osteoblasts and osteoclasts was lost upon freezing of osteochondral tissue, DMSO included in freezing protocols preserves some residual cell viability which may be of importance for early graft revascularization as has been previously demonstrated by our group.

Abstract
To survive, cells have to avoid excessive alterations of cell volume that jeopardize structural integrity and constancy of intracellular milieu. The function of cellular proteins seems specifically sensitive to dilution and concentration, determining the extent of macromolecular crowding. Even at constant extracellular osmolarity, volume constancy of any mammalian cell is permanently challenged by transport of osmotically active substances across the cell membrane and formation or disappearance of cellular osmolarity by metabolism. Thus cell volume constancy requires the continued operation of cell volume regulatory mechanisms, including ion transport across the cell membrane as well as accumulation or disposal of organic osmolytes and metabolites. The various cell volume regulatory mechanisms are triggered by a multitude of intracellular signaling events including alterations of cell membrane potential and of intracellular ion composition, various second messenger cascades, phosphorylation of diverse target proteins, and altered gene expression. Hormones and mediators have been shown to exploit the volume regulatory machinery to exert their effects. Thus cell volume may be considered a second message in the transmission of hormonal signals. Accordingly, alterations of cell volume and volume regulatory mechanisms participate in a wide variety of cellular functions including epithelial transport, metabolism, excitation, hormone release, migration, cell proliferation, and cell death.

Abstract
Lamins constitute the nuclear lamina, which underlie the inner membrane of the cell nucleus. Phosphorylation of lamins is a key factor in the regulation of nuclear structure during the cell cycle and of gene transcription. Since an uncontrolled cell cycle and altered gene transcription are major characteristics of neoplasms, we looked for differences in lamin B2 phosphorylation between PBMC, ALL and AML cells. Using different lamin B2-specific antibodies, we detected two different lamin B2 species termed lamin B2 and B2A. Although phosphorylation of lamin B2 in leukemic cells was reminiscent of resting cells, the majority of ALL and AML samples showed significantly higher and more altered lamin B2A phosphorylation compared to PBMC. It remains to be elucidated which mechanism leads to these alterations and whether it could explain the extended G1-phase frequently observed in ALL cells.

Abstract
Plasma membrane oxidoreductases have been described in all cells and use extracellular impermeant electron acceptors (DCIP, Ferricyanide) that are reduced by NADH. They appear to regulate the overall cell activity in response to oxidative stress from the cellular environment. An NADH-DCIP reductase has been described at the plasma membrane of NB41A3, a neuroblastoma cell line (Zurbriggen and Dryer (1993) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1183, 513-520) whose activation with extracellular impermeant substrates promotes cell growth. Elutriation was performed to separate cells and the various fractions were analysed for enzyme activity on intact cells combined with flow cytometry. These studies showed that the enzyme is mostly induced and activated during the G1 and during the G2/M-phases. These observations were further corroborated with specific inhibitors of the cell cycle. A three-fold increase in enzyme activity was observed in the presence of alpha-amanitin, a specific cell cycle inhibitor of the G1-phase. Taxol, a specific inhibitor of the M-phase, also induces a significant increase in enzyme activity. FACS analysis of taxol -treated and alpha-amanitin-treated cells corroborated these data. The cells have been synchronized and the enzyme activity was measured at different time intervals. An activity increase was observed after ca. 2-3 h, that corresponds to a raise in the M-phase, according to FACS data. Furthermore, NTera-2 cells - a human neuroblastoma cell line that differentiates into fully mature neurones in the presence of retinoic acid - exhibit a 50% decrease in the enzyme activity during the G0-phase upon differentiation, compared to undifferentiated cells. Together the data presented in this paper show that this plasma membrane NADH-diaphorase affects cell growth and differentiation and is strongly modulated at various phases of the cell cycle.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), an agent that provides symptomatic relief in patients with interstitial cystitis (IC) works via an unknown mechanism. We investigated whether DMSO acts as a chemical stimulant of mast cell degranulation. METHODS A radioimmunoassay (RIA) specific for histamine was used to test this hypothesis. Twelve women with strictly diagnosed IC were treated with intravesical instillations of DMSO. Treatments were repeated at varying intervals, and each patient received three to six treatments. Urine histamine levels were measured before and after each intravesical instillation of DMSO. Dilutional effects of DMSO were corrected for by conversion of urine histamine concentration to urine histamine:creatinine ratio. RESULTS The RIA was unaffected by the addition of DMSO to urine. No consistent change in the urine histamine:creatinine ratio following DMSO instillation was found. Trend analysis revealed no trend in the histamine:creatinine ratio with time. CONCLUSIONS The relief of symptoms reported in 50% to 77% of patients treated with intravesical DMSO is not related to detectable mast cell release of histamine. Other mechanisms of action must be investigated to explain the beneficial effect of this agent.
