    Victor Hugo’s Paris J-Term course in Paris, France, 2019 (ISHU 3720) BIS Program, School of Continuing and Professional Studies December 28, 2018-January 10, 2019 Syllabus DRAFT NB: Details may change because of specialists’ availability, site openings, weather or text availability. Program Director & Instructor: Marva Barnett Professor Emeritus (formerly professor at the UVA Center for Teaching Excellence and in the Drama and French Departments) Important Contact Info Marva Barnett’s cell in France: US cell: TBA Assistant’s US cell in France: TBA “To study in Paris is to be born in Paris!” « Étudier à Paris, c’est être né à Paris! » ― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables I, 3, ii “Whoever contemplates the depths of Paris is seized with vertigo. Nothing is more fantastic, nothing is more tragic, nothing is more superb.” « Qui regarde au fond de Paris a le vertige. Rien de plus fantasque, rien de plus tragique, rien de plus superbe. » ― Victor Hugo, Introduction to Paris-Guide, Part III, 1867 “To stray is human; to saunter is Parisian.” « Errer est humain, flâner est parisien. » ― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables III, 4, i Note: To get Hugo’s joke, you need to understand the French pun. “Errer” means both “to err” and “to stray, or get lost” and “errer est humain“ is as familiar as our “to err is human.” Course Description: One might argue, as slate.fr has, that Victor Hugo is Paris. A great Romantic poet and world-renowned novelist and social-justice fighter, Victor Hugo dominated nineteenth-century Paris. Students taking this BIS-affiliated J-Term course, “Victor Hugo’s Paris” will explore the City of Lights from literary, historical, artistic, biographical and cultural perspectives.

  • EC313-A Tissue Selective SPRM Reduces the Growth and Proliferation of Uterine Fbroids in a Human Uterine Fbroid Tissue Xenograft Model Hareesh B
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN EC313-a tissue selective SPRM reduces the growth and proliferation of uterine fbroids in a human uterine fbroid tissue xenograft model Hareesh B. Nair1*, Bindu Santhamma1, Kalarickal V. Dileep2, Peter Binkley3, Kirk Acosta1, Kam Y. J. Zhang 2, Robert Schenken3 & Klaus Nickisch1 Uterine fbroids (UFs) are associated with irregular or excessive uterine bleeding, pelvic pain or pressure, or infertility. Ovarian steroid hormones support the growth and maintenance of UFs. Ulipristal acetate (UPA) a selective progesterone receptor (PR) modulator (SPRM) reduce the size of UFs, inhibit ovulation and lead to amenorrhea. Recent liver toxicity concerns with UPA, diminished enthusiasm for its use and reinstate the critical need for a safe, efcacious SPRM to treat UFs. In the current study, we evaluated the efcacy of new SPRM, EC313, for the treatment for UFs using a NOD-SCID mouse model. EC313 treatment resulted in a dose-dependent reduction in the fbroid xenograft weight (p < 0.01). Estradiol (E2) induced proliferation was blocked signifcantly in EC313-treated xenograft fbroids (p < 0.0001). Uterine weight was reduced by EC313 treatment compared to UPA treatment. ER and PR were reduced in EC313-treated groups compared to controls (p < 0.001) and UPA treatments (p < 0.01). UF specifc desmin and collagen were markedly reduced with EC313 treatment. The partial PR agonism and no signs of unopposed estrogenicity makes EC313 a candidate for the long-term treatment for UFs. Docking studies have provided a structure based explanation for the SPRM activity of EC313. Te unmet need for medical management of uterine fbroids (UFs) has led to the discovery of various novel agents in recent years.

Abstract: The exact mechanism of selective progesterone receptor modulator action in leiomyoma still challenges researchers. The aim of the study was to assess the effects of ulipristal acetate (UPA) on immunoexpression of inflammatory markers and vascularization in fibroids. UPA-treated patients were divided into three groups: (1) good response (≥25% reduction in volume of fibroid), (2) weak response (insignificant volume reduction), (3) and no response to treatment (no decrease or increase in fibroid volume). The percentage of TGFβ, IL6, IL10, CD117, and CD68-positive cells were Citation: Szydłowska, I.; Grabowska, significantly lower in the group with a good response to treatment vs. the control group.
