Definition of abbreviations: BERK = Berkeley; Hct = hematocrit; hemi = hemizygous; Hgb = total hemoglobin; MCV = mean corpuscular volume; PLT = platelets; RDW = red blood cell distribution width; Retic = reticulocytes; SCD = sickle cell disease; WBC = leukocytes.
Values are ± SEM using unpaired Student’s t test. Red cell indices for control (BERK-Hemi) and SCD mice with/out soluble guanylate cyclase modulators.
