Drug induced endovesiculation was assayed for blood samples of donors that are homozygous (n = 23), heterozygous (n = 36) and wild-type (n = 22) with respect to the c.680 A>G mutation in the PANK2 gene as described in the Material and Methods section using 0.75, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0 mM primaquine. Mean values and the statistical significance of the difference between the three groups (assessed by an oneway ANOVA) are given.
