Hgb indicates hemoglobin level; HCT, hematocrit; MCV, mean cell volume; MCH, mean cell hemoglobin; and MCHC, mean cell hemoglobin concentration. Values are expressed ± SD. Automated complete blood counts were obtained from WT and homozygous ΔHS-62.5, Δ3′HS1 mice; red-cell indices are displayed. Reticulocyte counts were determined by flow cytometry after staining with RetiCount (Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA).
For each genotype, N = 4.
