Variable	C/C (N = 10)	T/T (N = 11)
Age (y)	22.8 ± 4.0(18-31)	21.2 ± 1.8 (18-24)
Hemoglobin (g/dL)	12.8 ± 0.8 (11.3-14.1)	13.3 ± 1.2 (11.1-14.7)
Serum ferritin (ug/L)	36.3 ± 28.3 (7-89.7)	36.7 ± 33.6 (7.4-124)
Serum transferrin receptor (mg/L)	3.2 ± 1.2 (1.7-5.0)	4.76 ± 1.81* (2.7-8.9)

NOTE.—Data are expressed as the mean ± SD with the range in parentheses. Iron status indicators were measured in blood obtained 2-weeks post-dosing. Similar patterns were observed using data from the screening day and the dosing day. * indicates p = 0.021 in one-tailed Wilcoxon rank sum test between the two genotypes
