Fig. 5

4-week-old male wild type and Hjv−/− mice (n = 8–10 per group) were fed a standard diet, a high iron diet (HID) or an iron-deficient diet (IDD). All animals were sacrificed after 5 weeks; livers were dissected and processed for biochemical, histological and proteomics analysis. a Schematic representation of the experimental design. b qPCR analysis of Hamp mRNA. c Quantification of liver iron. d Perls Prussian blue staining in liver sections (magnification: 3x). Data in (bc) are presented as the mean ± SEM. Statistical analysis was performed by two-way ANOVA. Statistically significant differences across genotypes are indicated by **(p < 0.01) or ***(p < 0.001).
