hematopoietic system
• aging heterozygotes exhibit an increased frequency of hemolytic anemia starting at ~12 months of age
• hemolytic anemia is caused by intra-erythrocytic oxidative damage and shows clinicopathological features similar to those observed in homozygous mutant mice, but is not fatal

neoplasm
• malignancies are frequently associated with loss of Prdx1 expression in heterozygotes, which suggests that this protein functions as a tumour suppressor
• 21% of heterozygotes develop lymphomas
• 37% of heterozygotes develop histiocytic sarcomas
• heterozygotes display an increased frequency of malignant tumors starting at ~12 months of age; however, malignancy is not associated with a reduction in overall survival
• 38% of tumour-bearing heterozygotes exhibited two independent malignancies
• 12% of heterozygotes develop breast adenocarcinomas
• 13% of heterozygotes develop hepatocellular carcinomas
• 6% of heterozygotes develop lung adenocarcinomas
• 25% of heterozygotes develop fibrosarcomas
• 19% of heterozygotes develop hemangiosarcomas
• 6% of heterozygotes develop osteosarcomas

cellular
• erythrocytes from anemic heterozygotes display an increase in baseline ROS, not observed in healthy (non-anemic) heterozygotes or wild-type mice
• erythrocytes from anemic heterozygotes display an increase in ROS generated in response to hydrogen peroxide challenge

integument
• 12% of heterozygotes develop breast adenocarcinomas

endocrine/exocrine glands
• 12% of heterozygotes develop breast adenocarcinomas

respiratory system
• 6% of heterozygotes develop lung adenocarcinomas

liver/biliary system
• 13% of heterozygotes develop hepatocellular carcinomas

skeleton
• 6% of heterozygotes develop osteosarcomas

homeostasis/metabolism
• erythrocytes from anemic heterozygotes display an increase in baseline ROS, not observed in healthy (non-anemic) heterozygotes or wild-type mice
• erythrocytes from anemic heterozygotes display an increase in ROS generated in response to hydrogen peroxide challenge
