The GJB2 Gene Deafness Autosomal Recessive Type 1A Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure aimed at identifying mutations in the GJB2 gene, which are linked to Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Sensorineural Deafness Type 1A (DFNB1A). This condition is characterized by a decrease in the ability to hear sounds, resulting from genetic variations that affect the normal function of the GJB2 gene, crucial for the development and maintenance of the inner ear structures responsible for sound transmission.

Conducted at DNA Labs UAE, this test is crucial for early diagnosis, enabling timely intervention and management strategies for individuals affected by this form of genetic hearing loss. It involves collecting a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or a cheek swab, which is then analyzed for specific mutations in the GJB2 gene. The results can provide valuable information for affected families regarding the inheritance pattern, potential for recurrence in future offspring, and guide decision-making regarding genetic counseling.

The cost of the GJB2 Gene Deafness Autosomal Recessive Type 1A Genetic Test at DNA Labs UAE is 4400 AED. Given the complexity of genetic testing and the profound impact the results can have on individuals and families, it is often accompanied by pre- and post-test counseling to ensure that the implications of the test results are fully understood.

GJB2 Gene Deafness Autosomal Recessive Type 1A Genetic Test

Cost: AED 4400.0

Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Test Details

The GJB2 gene is associated with a type of genetic deafness called autosomal recessive type 1A (DFNB1A). This type of deafness is caused by mutations in the GJB2 gene, which encodes a protein called connexin 26.

The NGS Genetic Test for GJB2 gene deafness involves sequencing the entire coding region of the GJB2 gene to identify any mutations or variations that may be present. This test is used to diagnose individuals with suspected autosomal recessive type 1A deafness. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of GJB2-related deafness.

By identifying the specific mutations in the GJB2 gene, healthcare professionals can provide accurate genetic counseling, determine the risk of passing the condition to future generations, and potentially guide treatment options.
