SOX3 Gene Panhypopituitarism X-linked Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the SOX3 Gene Panhypopituitarism X-linked Genetic Test. This test is designed to identify mutations in the SOX3 gene, which can lead to panhypopituitarism. Read on to learn more about the test details, cost, symptoms, diagnosis, and more.
Test Components and Price
The SOX3 Gene Panhypopituitarism X-linked Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test can be conducted using a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
The report for the test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method and Test Type
The test is conducted using NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology. NGS is a high-throughput genetic testing method that can analyze multiple genes simultaneously. The test falls under the categories of Hepatology, Nephrology, and Endocrinology Disorders.
Doctor and Test Department
The test can be ordered by a General Physician and is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the SOX3 Gene Panhypopituitarism X-linked NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the SOX3 Gene Panhypopituitarism X-linked NGS Genetic DNA Test gene SOX3.
Test Details
The SOX3 gene is located on the X chromosome and is crucial for the development of the pituitary gland. Mutations in the SOX3 gene can result in panhypopituitarism, a condition characterized by underdevelopment or malfunctioning of the pituitary gland. The NGS genetic test analyzes the DNA sample obtained from the individual being tested using NGS technology. This generates a vast amount of genetic data, which is then compared to a reference genome to identify any genetic variations or mutations in the SOX3 gene and other relevant genes. The results of the test can help diagnose panhypopituitarism, determine the mode of inheritance (X-linked in this case), and provide information about the likelihood of passing on the condition to future generations.
It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide appropriate counseling and guidance based on the results.

| Test Details |
The SOX3 gene is located on the X chromosome and plays a crucial role in the development of the pituitary gland. Mutations in the SOX3 gene can lead to a condition called panhypopituitarism, which is characterized by the underdevelopment or malfunctioning of the pituitary gland. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a high-throughput genetic testing method that can analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of panhypopituitarism, an NGS genetic test can be performed to identify mutations in the SOX3 gene and other relevant genes associated with the condition. This genetic test involves obtaining a DNA sample, typically through a blood sample, from the individual being tested. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology, which generates a vast amount of genetic data. This data is analyzed by comparing it to a reference genome to identify any genetic variations or mutations in the SOX3 gene and other relevant genes. The results of the NGS genetic test can provide valuable information about the presence of mutations in the SOX3 gene and help diagnose panhypopituitarism. It can also help determine the mode of inheritance (X-linked in this case) and provide information about the likelihood of passing on the condition to future generations. It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide appropriate counseling and guidance based on the results. |
