Genetic and environmental causes of variation in basal levels of blood cells

1999-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Abstract The genetic and environmental determinants of variation in blood cell size and number were investigated in 392 pairs of 12-year-old twins. The following blood cell indices were measured: haemoglobin, red blood cell count, haematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, platelet number, total white cell count, level of neutrophils, monocytes, eosinophils, total lymphocytes, CD3 + lymphocytes, CD4 + lymphocytes, CD8...
