Percutaneous absorption refers to the passage of a It is well known that the outer or surface division of substance from the surface of the skin through the horny the epidermis, known as the stratum corneum or horny layer of the epidermis, into the cellular epidermis and layer of the skin, acts as a barrier to penetration of ex from there into the corium or dermis. Penetration of the ternal substances into the immediate area as well as into 35 substance through the horny layer constitutes per the body. Oftentimes, however, it is desired to increase cutaneous absorption for the purposes of this invention. the degree of dermatological or percutaneous absorption The passage of the substance on into the corium and or penetration of a particular therapeutically active into the systemic circulation is considered to be the effect, or continuing result of percutaneous absorption. Once a dermal preparation, as for example in the treatment of 40 chemical substance passes through the horny layer of skin disorders, subcutaneous infections, cosmetic effects, the epidermis, there readily occurs further absorption or or the like. penetration through the stratum granulosum, stratum In this regard, several reagents and methods for in malpighii and stratum germinativum, on into the first creasing the permeability of the skin have been disclosed connective tissue beneath the epidermis, and thence into in the art.

  • Basic Analytical Toxicology
    The World Health Organization is a specialized agency of the United Nations with primary responsibility for international health matters and public health. Through this organization, which was created in 1948, the health professions of some 190 countries exchange their knowledge and experience with the aim of making possible the attainment by all citizens of the world by the year 2000 of a level of health that will permit them to lead a socially and economically productive life. By means of direct technical cooperation with its Member States, and by stimulating such coopera­ tion among them, WHO promotes the development of comprehensive health services, the prevention and control of diseases, the improvement of environmental conditions, the development of human resources for health, the coordination and development of biomedical and health services research, and the planning and implementation of health programmes. These broad fields of endeavour encompass a wide variety of activities, such as developing systems of primary health care that reach the whole population of Member countries; promoting the health of mothers and children; combating malnutrition, controlling malaria and other communicable diseases including tuberculosis and leprosy; coordinating the global strategy for the prevention and control of AIDS; having achieved the eradication of smallpox, promoting mass immunization against a number of other preventable diseases; improving mental health; providing safe water supplies; and training health personnel of all categories. Progress towards better health throughout the world also demands international cooperation in such matters as establishing international standards for biological substances, pesticides and pharma­ ceuticals; formulating environmental health criteria; recommending international nonproprietary names for drugs; administering the International Health Regulations; revising the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems and collecting and disseminating healih statistical information.

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.
