    Notes: Abstract The present study provides evidence to support that human platelets possess a 47 kDa dual functional molecule having thiol-oxidase activity as well as high affinity for the SRE sequence in the human genome. On the basis of these as well as earlier results, we propose that Receptor 'Ck' dependent regulation of this dual functional 47 kDa molecule may provide a mechanism for the maintenance of cellular cholesterol homeostasis. Further, this mechanism nay also explain the molecular basis of cholesterol-feedback lesion observed under premalignant conditions.

    Notes: Abstract The study, addressed to understand whether or not human platelets possess a unique thiol-oxidase whose activity could be modulated by signalling pathway initiated upon the activation of Receptor-‘C’k revealed the existence of disulphide-dependent oxidation within these cells and this phenomenon was regulated by Receptor-‘C’k-dependent generation of second messengers especially phosphatidic acid (PA); cAMP and cGMP. Purification of this activity revealed the existence of 47 kDa protein having thiol-oxidase activity. Keeping in view these results we propose that the existence of this novel 47 kDa Thiol-oxidase within human platelets may provide a ‘crucial switch’ for the regulation of Receptor-‘C’k-dependent mevalonate pathway in human platelets.
