Continuity of derivations of algebras of locally measurable operators

We prove that any derivation of the *-algebra ${LS({\mathcal{M}})}$ of all locally measurable operators affiliated with a properly infinite von Neumann algebra ${{\mathcal{M}}}$ is continuous with respect to the local measure topology ${t({\mathcal{M}})}$ . Building an extension of a derivation ${\delta:{\mathcal{M}}\rightarrow LS({\mathcal{M}})}$ up to a derivation from ${LS({\mathcal{M}})}$ into ${LS({\mathcal{M}})}$ , it is further established that any derivation from ${{\mathcal{M}}}$ into ${LS({\mathcal{M}})}$ is ${t({\mathcal{M}})}$ -continuous.
