HLA antigens in Addisonian pernicious anaemia: absence of a HLA and disease association.

abstract：:Use of asparaginase (ASNase) in the treatment of relapsed childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is associated with a high rate of hypersensitive reactions. 'Silent' inactivation may additionally reduce treatment intensity. Therefore, PEG-ASNase (Oncaspar), a polyethylene glycol conjugate of the native Escheric...
