ITGB3 Gene Thrombocytopenia Neonatal Alloimmune Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the ITGB3 Gene Thrombocytopenia neonatal alloimmune Genetic Test. This test is designed to diagnose and provide valuable information about the ITGB3 gene and its association with thrombocytopenia and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. Read on to learn more about this test.
Test Details
The ITGB3 gene is responsible for encoding a protein called integrin beta-3, which plays a crucial role in platelet function and clotting. Mutations in this gene can lead to a condition called thrombocytopenia, characterized by a low platelet count in the blood. Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT) is a specific type of thrombocytopenia that occurs in newborn babies. It is caused by maternal antibodies targeting platelet antigens inherited from the father. These antibodies cross the placenta and destroy fetal platelets, resulting in low platelet counts in the newborn.
Our ITGB3 Gene Thrombocytopenia neonatal alloimmune Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology. NGS genetic testing allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. In the context of ITGB3 gene thrombocytopenia and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations or variations in the ITGB3 gene or other relevant genes associated with these conditions. This helps in the diagnosis of these conditions and provides information about the genetic basis of the disease.
Additionally, NGS genetic testing can be used for carrier testing in families with a history of ITGB3 gene thrombocytopenia or neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. It can identify individuals who carry mutations in the ITGB3 gene, even if they do not have the condition themselves. This information can be useful for family planning and reproductive decision-making.
