Iron levels, organ and body weights, and Hamp1 expression in Hjv−/− and wild type mice.

Parameter Males Hjv−/− Females Hjv−/− Sex Difference T-Test Hjv−/− Males wild type Females wild type Sex Difference T-Test wild type
Heart Iron (μg/g wet weight) 238 ± 73 163 ± 29 < 0.0001 79 ± 7 82 ± 7 < 0.40
Heart Weight (g) 0.147 ± 0.026 0.131 ± 0.020 < 0.01 0.153 ± 0.012 0.128 ± 0.014 < 0.01
Liver Iron (μg/g wet weight) 2041 ± 492 1776 ± 527 < 0.05 237 ± 50 317 ± 55 < 0.05
Liver Weight (g) 1.49 ± 0.26 1.42 ± 0.29 < 0.30 1.09 ± 0.09 0.94 ± 0.15 < 0.08
Hamp1 (relative to β-actin) 1.6 ± 1.2 2.5 ± 1.3 < 0.19 26 ± 1 32 ±1 < 0.23
Body Weight (g) 26 ± 3 24 ± 2 < 0.05 28 ± 2 22 ± 1 < 0.0001

Geometric mean ± standard deviation is displayed for Hamp1; all other values are arithmetic mean ± standard deviation. Calculations for Hjv −/− mice include the data from all five Hjv−/− male groups (M-intact, OrchX+T, OrchX+E, OrchX+DHT, OrchX) and all three Hjv −/− female groups (F-intact, OVX, OVX+E).
