Offspring from female Atp4a+/− and male Atp4asublytic/sublytic mice were subjected to automated CBC analysis. C57BL/6J control mice were analyzed in the same experiment. sublytic homozygotes were analyzed in a separate experiment and are presented here as a reference. All mice were analyzed at 4 weeks of age. Results are presented as means ± SD.

HGB indicates hemoglobin; HCT, hematocrit; MCH, mean corpuscular hemoglobin; MCHC, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration; and RDW, RBC distribution width.
