Hematologic parameters of C57BL/6 WT and Tmprss6 KO mice on a C57BL/6 pure genetic background

RBC × 106 cells/μL Hb (g/dL) HCT (%) MCV (fL) MCH (pg) RDW (%)
B6 WT 9.4 ± 0.8 15 ± 1.2 41 ± 3 43.9 ± 1 16 ± 0.3 36.6 ± 0.4
Tmprss6−/− 9.1 ± 1.3 11.6 ± 1.2* 27.6 ± 4.2 30.3 ± 0.5 12.9 ± 0.6 42.4 ± 1.7

Complete blood counts were measured from whole blood. Data are presented as mean ± SD. Group sizes: B6 WT (n = 5) and Tmprss6 KO (n = 8).

HCT, hematocrit; MCH, mean corpuscular Hb; MCV, mean corpuscular volume; RDW, red cell distribution width.
