100 Integer Multiplication with Over ow Detection or Saturation Michael J. Schulte, Pablo I. Balzola, Ahmet Akkas, and Robert W. Brocato Abstract|High-speed multiplication is frequently used in general-purpose and application-speci c computer systems. These systems often support integer multiplication, where two n-bit integers are multiplied to produce a 2n-bit product. To prevent growth in wor...

Mefenamic acid (MFA), a carboxylic acid-containing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, is metabolized into the chemically-reactive MFA-1-O-acyl-glucuronide (MFA-1-O-G), MFA-acyl-adenylate (MFA-AMP), and the MFA-S-acyl-coenzyme A (MFA-CoA), all of which are electrophilic and capable of acylating nucleophilic sites on biomolecules. In this study, we investigate the nonenzymatic ability of each M...

Mefenamic acid (MFA), a carboxylic acid–containing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, is metabolized into the chemically-reactive MFA-1-O-acyl-glucuronide (MFA-1-O-G), MFA-acyl-adenylate (MFAAMP), and the MFA-S-acyl-coenzyme A (MFA-CoA), all of which are electrophilic and capable of acylating nucleophilic sites on biomolecules.

Carboxylic acid-containing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can be metabolized to chemically reactive acyl glucuronide and/or S-acyl-CoA thioester metabolites capable of transacylating GSH. We investigated the metabolism of the NSAID mefenamic acid (MFA) to metabolites that transacylate GSH, leading to MFA-S-acyl-GSH thioester (MFA-SG) formation in incubations with rat and human he...

I-mfa has been identified as an inhibitor of myogenic basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors, and a related human I-mfa domain-containing protein (HIC) also has been identified as a protein that regulates Tat- and Tax-mediated expression of viral promoters. HIC and I-mfa represent a family of proteins that share a highly conserved cysteine-rich domain, termed the I-mfa domain. We show her...

We have previously shown that beta-catenin interacts with a transcription suppressor I-mfa and, through this interaction, canonical Wnt signaling could relieve I-mfa-mediated suppression of myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs). In this study, we found that, based on this interaction, I-mfa-mediated suppression of the Wnt transcription factor T-cell factor/lymphoid enhancing factor-1 (TCF/LEF-1) c...

In 1990, a 2-ha plantation of Eucalyptus nitens (Deane and Maiden) Maiden was established in southeastern Tasmania and subjected to different irrigation regimes. Point dendrometers were installed in March 1995 to monitor radial stem movement every 15 min over several growing seasons. In this study, data from two growing seasons (1996-1998) were considered. From these measurements, daily increme...

Article history: Received on: 11/05/2016 Revised on: 30/06/2016 Accepted on: 16/08/2016 Available online: 29/10/2016 Mefenamic acid (MFA) and Nicotinamide (NIC) cocrystal formation in co-milling treatment was investigated by x-ray powder diffractometry (XRPD). Two polymorphic form of Mefenamic acid (MFA form I and MFA form II) were used to form a cocrystal with nicotinamide. Co-milling treatmen...

The angle between helical windings of microfibrils in the secondary cell wall of fibers and the long axis is called microfibril angle (MFA). Stiffness of wood depends on variations in the MFA. The large MFA shows low stiffness, which is found in juvenile wood and this character make threes vulnerable to high winds breaking. Timber containing a high proportion of juvenile wood is unsuitable for ...

BACKGROUND Kaiser Permanente Colorado has been responding to the financial challenges of its members by providing a medical financial assistance (MFA) program since 1992. However, there have been no evaluations of the effect of this program on members' use of health services or their health outcomes. METHODS A prospective cohort study of 308 MFA program members who were enrolled between May 1...
