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.
P < .05. Tmprss6 KO mice vs B6 WT mice.
