Hematological parameters of FTL-Tg mice treated with iron dextran (Fe) (n = 13) compared to age-matched FTL-Tg untreated (Control (no Fe)) (n = 10).

DFP-treated FTL-Tg mice at a low dose (DFP50) (n = 11) or a high dose (DFP100) (n = 14) were compared to age-matched FTL-Tg untreated (Control (no DFP)) (n = 11). The following hematological parameters were measured: RBC, red blood cells number (x 106/ml); WBC, white blood cells (x 103/ml); Hb, hemoglobin (g/dl); HtC, hematocrit (%), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), red cell distribution width (RDW), Platelet (Pt), and mean platelet volume (MPV). Significant differences compared to controls (p
