Common variants in TMPRSS6 are associated with iron status and erythrocyte volume

We report a genome-wide association study to iron status. We identify an association of SNPs in TPMRSS6 to serum iron (rs855791, combined P = 1.5×10(−20)), transferrin saturation (combined P = 2.2×10(−23)), and erythrocyte mean cell volume (MCV, combined P = 1.1×10(−10)). We also find suggestive evi...
