N normal phenotype
hematopoietic system
• six fold increase in spleen weight
• mice have a 66% reduction in hemocrit values (J:79374)
• mice have a 60% reduction in hemocrit values (J:128248)

homeostasis/metabolism
• maximum oxygen consumption is reduced by 30%
• 11% increase in arterial partial O2 levels compared to wild-type mice
• hypoxia occurs in hindlimb skeletal muscle as determined by increased CD31 and VEGF expression
• livers show an increase in the amount of nonheme iron in the cytoplasm of the Kupffer and parenchymal cells

cardiovascular system
• 20% increase in the length of the sarcomeres
• two fold increase in heart weight that is consistent with anemia-associated hypertrophy
• 27% increase in weight
• no further increases in weight occur when mice are hypoxic for 2 weeks (J:128242)
• 44% average increase in weight (J:128248)

muscle
• 20% increase in the length of the sarcomeres

immune system
• six fold increase in spleen weight

respiratory system
• mice increase their ventilation with acclimatization to hypoxia (J:128242)
• ventilation under normoxia conditions is increased almost 1.7 fold due to larger tidal volumes of each respiration (J:128248)
• mice have an increased respiratory rate when subjected to hypoxic conditions

growth/size/body
• two fold increase in heart weight that is consistent with anemia-associated hypertrophy
• six fold increase in spleen weight
