| pubmed-article:19422445 | pubmed:abstractText | L-asparaginase (L-ASP) treatment of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia causes a severe antithrombin deficiency by intracellular retention of this serpin within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of hepatic cells, and a subsequent risk of thrombosis. Interestingly, co-administration of dexamethasone with L-ASP seems to reduce the risk of thrombosis. | lld:pubmed |
