CTNS Gene Cystinosis nephropathic Genetic Test
Cost: AED 4400.0
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the CTNS Gene Cystinosis nephropathic Genetic Test, which is a comprehensive genetic test designed to diagnose and manage the rare genetic disorder known as cystinosis. This test is essential for individuals who exhibit symptoms associated with cystinosis and require an accurate diagnosis for proper treatment and management.
Test Components:
- NGS Technology
- Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
- Genetics Test Department
Test Details:
The CTNS gene is associated with cystinosis, a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of cystine in various organs and tissues, particularly the kidneys. Our NGS genetic testing utilizes advanced sequencing technology to analyze the CTNS gene for mutations or variations that may contribute to the development of cystinosis. This comprehensive analysis allows for a definitive diagnosis of cystinosis and enables healthcare professionals to determine the most appropriate treatment and management strategies for affected individuals.
In addition to diagnosis, our CTNS Gene Cystinosis nephropathic Genetic Test can also be used for carrier testing and prenatal diagnosis in families with a known history of cystinosis. This helps individuals make informed decisions regarding family planning and ensures early detection and intervention for affected pregnancies.
Price and Report Delivery:
The CTNS Gene Cystinosis nephropathic Genetic Test is priced at AED 4400.0. The report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
Pre-Test Information:
Prior to undergoing the CTNS Gene Cystinosis nephropathic Genetic Test, it is recommended to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session is advised to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by cystinosis. This information is crucial for accurate interpretation of the test results and for providing appropriate counseling and guidance.
Doctor and Test Department:
The CTNS Gene Cystinosis nephropathic Genetic Test can be requested by a General Physician and is conducted in our Genetics Test Department.
It is important to note that genetic testing for cystinosis should only be performed by qualified healthcare professionals or genetic counselors who possess the necessary expertise to provide pre- and post-test counseling. They can help interpret the test results and offer guidance for further management and treatment options.

| Test Details |
The CTNS gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder called cystinosis, nephropathic type. Cystinosis is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of the amino acid cystine in various organs and tissues of the body, including the kidneys. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a high-throughput sequencing technology that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or the entire genome. In the case of cystinosis, an NGS genetic test can be used to analyze the CTNS gene for mutations or variations that may be responsible for the development of the disease. By identifying specific genetic variations in the CTNS gene, NGS genetic testing can provide a definitive diagnosis of cystinosis and help determine the appropriate treatment and management strategies for affected individuals. Additionally, this testing can also be used for carrier testing and prenatal diagnosis in families with a known history of cystinosis. It’s important to note that genetic testing for cystinosis should be performed by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide appropriate pre- and post-test counseling, as well as help interpret the results and provide guidance for further management and treatment options. |
