The MTHFR Gene Homocystinuria Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure designed to identify mutations in the MTHFR gene, which can lead to elevated levels of homocysteine in the blood, a condition known as homocystinuria. This condition is significant because high levels of homocysteine can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other vascular diseases. Additionally, homocystinuria can impact neurological and skeletal systems, making early detection and management crucial.

Performed at DNA Labs UAE, the test involves collecting a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or cheek swab, which is then analyzed to detect any mutations in the MTHFR gene. The cost of the test is set at 4400 AED, reflecting the comprehensive analysis and expertise required to accurately interpret the results.

Understanding one’s genetic predisposition to conditions like homocystinuria is essential for implementing preventative measures or treatments that can significantly improve quality of life and reduce the risk of associated health complications. This test is particularly valuable for individuals with a family history of cardiovascular disease or homocystinuria, as it provides crucial insights into their genetic health profile.

MTHFR Gene Homocystinuria Genetic Test

Cost: AED 4400.0

Overview

The MTHFR gene is responsible for producing an enzyme called methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase. This enzyme plays a role in the metabolism of folate, a B-vitamin that is important for various bodily functions, including the synthesis of DNA and the metabolism of amino acids.

Mutations in the MTHFR gene can lead to reduced enzyme activity, resulting in elevated levels of homocysteine, an amino acid. Homocystinuria is a rare genetic disorder characterized by high levels of homocysteine in the blood and urine.

Test Details

  • Components: MTHFR Gene Homocystinuria Genetic Test
  • Price: AED 4400.0
  • Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
  • Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
  • Method: NGS Technology
  • Test Type: Vascular Diseases
  • Doctor: General Physician

Pre Test Information

A Genetic Counselling session is recommended to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with the MTHFR Gene Homocystinuria NGS Genetic DNA Test gene MTHFR.

Method

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze the DNA sequence of an individual’s genes. In the case of MTHFR gene homocystinuria testing, NGS can identify mutations or variations in the MTHFR gene that may be associated with homocystinuria.

Benefits of Testing

By detecting specific genetic changes in the MTHFR gene, NGS testing can help diagnose homocystinuria and provide information about the severity and potential complications of the condition. This information can guide treatment decisions and genetic counseling for affected individuals and their families.
