In the context of a people's Europe, the Commission attaches great Importance to simplifying and clarifying Community law so as to make It clearer and more accessible to the ordinary citizen, thus giving hIm new opportunItIes and the chance to make use of the spec if i c rights It gives him. This aim cannot be achieved so long as numerous provisions that have been amended several times, often QUite substantially, remain scattered, so that they must be sought partly In the original Instrument and partly In later amending ones. Considerable research work, comparing many different Instruments, Is thus needed to Identify the current rules. For this reason a consot tdatton of rules that have freQuently been amended Is essential If Community law Is to be clear and transparent. 2. In Its resolution of 26 November 1974 concerning consolidation of Its acts (1), the Council recommended that those of Its acts which have been amended several times be assembled Into a single text. It stressed that, In the Interests of legal certainty, a genuine legislative consolidation, Involving the repeal of earlier acts, should wherever possible be effected (as Is being done In this case). it conseQuently Invited the Commission to let it have proposals for consol !dation and undertook ·to examine them "as Quickly as possible, whltout bringing Into QUestion, during that consol ldatlon, the substantive solutions contained In the consol !dated texts".

BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY Description Bromisoval has anti-inflammatory effects and has been used as an old sedative and hypnotic. In Vitro Bromisoval (BU) suppresses nitric oxide (NO) releasing and proinflammatory cytokine expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treat BV2 cells, a murine microglial cell line. Bromisoval suppresses LPS-inducing phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) and expression of interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1). The Janus kinase 1 (JAK1) inhibitor filgotinib suppresses the NO release much more weakly than that of Bromisoval, although filgotinib almost completely prevents LPS-inducing STAT1 phosphorylation. Knockdown of JAK1, STAT1, or IRF1 does not affect the suppressive effects of Bromisoval on LPS-inducing NO. A combination of Bromisoval and filgotinib synergistically suppress the NO releasing. The mitochondrial complex I inhibitor rotenone, which does not prevent STAT1 phosphorylation or IRF1 expression, suppresses proinflammatory mediator expression less significantly than Bromisoval.
