La L-asparaginasa actúa como agonista plaquetario in vitro y podría conducir a un estado de hiperreactividad plaquetaria, que en conjunto con la disminución de anticoagulantes naturales podría desencadenar el estado hipercoagulable en la leucemia linfoblástica aguda.

Resumen
Antecedentes. La leucemia linfoblástica aguda (LLA) constituye el 30% de los cánceres en la infancia. La enzima L-asparaginasa se incluye en todos los esquemas de tratamiento, pero su administración puede acompañarse de complicaciones tromboembólicas graves. Diversos estudios documentaron una disminución de las proteínas anticoagulantes C, S y antitrombina III (ATIII). En esta investigación postulamos la posibilidad de que la L-asparaginasa tenga un efecto agonista plaquetario que contribuya al estado hipercoagulable en la LLA. Pacientes y métodos. Se estudiaron quince pacientes menores de 12 años con el diagnóstico de LLA de la infancia, sometidos a un protocolo que incluyó la administración de L-asparaginasa, 10 000 U/m2/6 semanas. El grupo control fue integrado por 15 individuos sanos con tiempo de sangrado y cuenta plaquetaria normales. Se efectuó agregometría plaquetaria utilizando varias concentraciones de L-asparaginasa, junto con los agonistas ADP, adrenalina, colágeno y ristocetina. Resultados. La agregometría demostró un efecto proagregante de la L-asparaginasa en plaquetas de pacientes con LLA y en las de voluntarios normales. Conclusión. La L-asparaginasa actúa como agonista plaquetario in vitro y podría conducir a un estado de hiperreactividad plaquetaria, que en conjunto con la disminución de anticoagulantes naturales podría desencadenar el estado hipercoagulable en la LLA.

Abstract
Background and objectives. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) accounts for 30% of all childhood malignancies. The enzyme L-asparaginase (L-aspar) constitutes a fundamental component of modern chemotherapeutic regimens for the treatment of ALL. Its administration however, can be associated with severe thromboembolic complications. Diverse studies have documented a decrease in the natural anticoagulant proteins C, S and antithrombin III (ATIII) in children receiving the enzyme. We postulate the hypothesis that L-asparaginase could have a platelet agonist effect, thus contributing to the hipercoagulable state observed in ALL. Patients and methods. Fifteen children under thirteen years of age with a new diagnosis of ALL were included. The treatment protocol included L-asparaginase, 6 000 UI/m2, twice a week per 6 weeks. Platelet aggregometry included adenosin diphosphate, adrenaline, collagen and ristocetin. Saline dilutions of L-asparaginase were assayed as additional agonists. The control group consisted of 15 normal donors. Results. Platelet aggregometry documented a direct in vitro agonist effect of L-asparaginase on platelets from children with ALL as well as on those of normal donors. Conclusion. L-asparaginase can act as a potent platelet agonist in vitro. This effect could be one additional procoagulant factor and could contribute to the prothrombotic state observed in ALL.
