FD prevents H/R-induced dense cell formation and increased neutrophil counts in SS mice. (A) Hematocrit (Hct), hemoglobin (Hb), and red cell distribution width (HDW) of AA and SS mice under a soy-diet (SD) or fish-oil diet (FD) under normoxia (white bars) and exposed to hypoxia (black bars) (8% oxygen; 10 h) followed by reoxygenation (21% oxygen; 3 h) (H/R). (B) Red cell distribution histograms generated for erythrocyte cell volume (RBC Volume) and cell hemoglobin concentration (RBC-HC). Red cell morphology is shown for each condition. (C) Neutrophil counts in AA and SS mice treated as in (A) under normoxia (white bars) and exposed to hypoxia (black bars) (8% oxygen; 10 h) followed by reoxygenation (21% oxygen; 3 h) (H/R). All statistical data are presented as means ± standard deviation (n=6; *P<0.005; **P<0.002).
