About the Cover for Blood 91 (9)
Cover figure courtesy of Barbui et al, "Review: The Impact of
All-trans-Retinoic Acid on the Coagulopathy of Acute
Promyelocytic Leukemia." Acute promyelocytic leukemia cells interact
with the hemostatic system in multiple ways, including their release of cellular procoagulants and fibrinolytic proteins, and inflammatory cytokines which induce a thrombogenic state in endothelial cells. All-trans-retinoic acid counteracts many of these
effects.
