CHST8 Gene Peeling Skin Syndrome Type 3 Genetic Test
Are you or a loved one experiencing recurrent episodes of peeling and blistering of the skin? DNA Labs UAE offers the CHST8 Gene Peeling Skin Syndrome Type 3 Genetic Test to help diagnose and understand this rare genetic disorder.
Test Details
The CHST8 gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder called peeling skin syndrome type 3 (PSS3). PSS3 is characterized by the shedding of the outermost layer of the skin, leading to recurrent episodes of peeling and blistering.
Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology allows for the analysis of the CHST8 gene to identify any mutations or variations that may be responsible for the disorder. This can help confirm a diagnosis of PSS3 and provide information about the specific genetic changes causing the condition.

Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the CHST8 Gene Peeling Skin Syndrome Type 3 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with the CHST8 gene. This information will aid in the interpretation of the test results.
How the Test Works
NGS genetic testing can be performed using a small blood or saliva sample. The sample is sent to our specialized laboratory where the DNA is extracted and sequenced. The sequencing data is then analyzed to identify any variations in the CHST8 gene.
The results of the test can help understand the underlying cause of the disorder, guide treatment decisions, and provide information about the risk of passing on the condition to future generations.
At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services. Our team of experts, including dermatologists and geneticists, work together to ensure the highest quality of care and support for our patients.
If you suspect that you or a family member may have peeling skin syndrome type 3, don’t hesitate to contact us for more information or to schedule a consultation.

Test Details |
The CHST8 gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder called peeling skin syndrome type 3 (PSS3). PSS3 is characterized by the shedding of the outermost layer of the skin, leading to recurrent episodes of peeling and blistering. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a high-throughput method that allows for the sequencing of multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of PSS3, NGS genetic testing can be used to analyze the CHST8 gene for any mutations or variations that may be responsible for the disorder. This can help in confirming a diagnosis of PSS3 and providing information about the specific genetic changes that are causing the condition. NGS genetic testing can be performed using a small blood or saliva sample. The sample is sent to a specialized laboratory where the DNA is extracted and sequenced. The sequencing data is then analyzed to identify any variations in the CHST8 gene. The results of the test can help in understanding the underlying cause of the disorder and may guide treatment decisions or provide information about the risk of passing on the condition to future generations. |
