CEBPA Gene Leukemia Myeloid Acute Form Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer a comprehensive genetic test for the CEBPA gene associated with myeloid acute form of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This test can detect CEBPA germline mutations that may be present in individuals and their family members. Our test provides valuable information for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment decisions.
Test Details
The CEBPA gene is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in the development and differentiation of myeloid cells. Mutations in the CEBPA gene have been linked to the development of AML, particularly the myeloid acute form.
Our genetic test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, which allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously. By analyzing the CEBPA gene, we can identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be present.
Symptoms and Diagnosis
Individuals with CEBPA germline mutations may have an increased risk of developing AML. Common symptoms of AML include fatigue, shortness of breath, easy bruising or bleeding, and frequent infections. Diagnosis of AML typically involves a combination of physical examinations, blood tests, and bone marrow biopsies.
Test Components and Price
Our CEBPA Gene Leukemia Myeloid Acute Form Genetic Test is priced at AED 4400.0. The test requires a blood sample or extracted DNA. Alternatively, one drop of blood can be collected on an FTA card for testing.
Report Delivery and Test Department
After sample collection, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. Our test is conducted in the Genetics department by experienced professionals.
Genetic Counseling and Pre-Test Information
Prior to undergoing the CEBPA Gene Leukemia Myeloid Acute Form Genetic Test, a genetic counseling session is recommended. This session helps in drawing a pedigree chart of family members affected by CEBPA germline mutations. Our team of genetic counselors can provide guidance and support throughout the testing process.
Benefits of Genetic Testing
If a CEBPA germline mutation is identified through our NGS genetic test, it can provide valuable information for both the individual and their healthcare team. The results can help guide treatment decisions, determine prognosis, and potentially identify family members who may also be at risk of developing AML due to the same genetic mutation.
It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed and interpreted by healthcare professionals with expertise in genetics, such as genetic counselors or medical geneticists, to ensure accurate and appropriate interpretation of the results.
At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing reliable and accurate genetic testing services. Contact us today to learn more about our CEBPA Gene Leukemia Myeloid Acute Form Genetic Test and schedule a consultation with our oncologist.

Test Details |
The CEBPA gene is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in the development and differentiation of myeloid cells. Mutations in the CEBPA gene have been associated with the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), particularly the myeloid acute form. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a technique used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously and identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be present. In the context of AML, NGS genetic testing can be used to detect CEBPA germline mutations, which are inherited mutations present in the DNA of all cells in the body. CEBPA germline mutations are relatively rare and are associated with a distinct subtype of AML characterized by a better prognosis compared to other forms of AML. Individuals with CEBPA germline mutations may have an increased risk of developing AML, and genetic testing can help identify individuals who may benefit from closer monitoring or early intervention. If a CEBPA germline mutation is identified through NGS genetic testing, it can provide valuable information for both the individual and their healthcare team. It can help guide treatment decisions, determine prognosis, and potentially identify family members who may also be at risk of developing AML due to the same genetic mutation. It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed and interpreted by healthcare professionals with expertise in genetics, such as genetic counselors or medical geneticists, to ensure accurate and appropriate interpretation of the results. |
