Abstract
Introduction CD38 is a multifunctional enzyme with a potent Ca2+ mobilizing effect, cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). Here, we aimed to demonstrate the role of CD38 in platelets via protein kinase C (PKC)-mediated internalization and activation. Methods Mouse platelets were used in this study. Thrombin, an agonist of platelet function, provoked a prompt and long-lasting increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), resulting from an interplay of multifold Ca2+ mobilizing messengers.The signaling pathway was delineated using different inhibitors and techniques such as platelet aggregation assay, intracellular calcium measurements, immunoprecipitation, immunoblotting, and flow cytometry. Results We observed a sequential formation of cADPR and NAADP through CD38 activation by PKC of non-muscle myosin heavy chain IIA (MHCIIA), resulting in phospholipase C (PLC) activation in the thrombin-stimulated platelets. These findings reveal that PKC is fundamental in activating CD38 and elicits a physiological response in the murine platelets. Conclusion PKC is involved in many signaling pathways. Specifically, PKC is involved in the internalization of CD38 via MHCIIA in CD38+/+ wild-type (WT) and CD38-/- knockout mice (KO). CD38 generates calcium-mobilizing agents that act on specific receptors of the calcium stores. Calcium triggered platelet aggregation while serving as a secondary messenger.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To check the amount of cellular damage caused by serial transfusions of blood in thalassemia patients. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the University of Lahore, Lahore, Pakistan between August 2012 and December 2012. A total of 43 thalassemia patients underwent at least 10 blood transfusions. Comprehensive biochemical analysis of blood was performed to record the levels of creatinine, urea, uric acid, albumin, liver function tests, malondialdehyde (MDA), and ferritin. Results: Serum creatinine (0.732±0.23mg/dl) and uric acid (6.7±0.94mg/dl, p less than 0.05) were significantly higher in patient groups as compared with the control. Ferritin levels were significantly higher in patients as compared with the control (3103.9±1747.4, p less than 0.05). Hemoglobin levels were observed in controls 14±1.3g/dl and in patients 7.1±1.03g/dl. No clear relationship exists between age and hematological parameters of thalassemic patients. Serum ferritin level is positively related with serum alanine transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase and MDA (p less than 0.05). Conclusion: Serum MDA and serum ferritin of patients (r=0.593, p less than 0.05) reflects that both are crucial parameters estimating the cellular damage in patients suffering from thalassemia.
