The “FISH – RARA 17q21 Variant Translocation Test” is a specialized diagnostic procedure offered by DNA Labs UAE, aimed at detecting specific genetic abnormalities associated with certain types of leukemia. FISH, or Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization, is a molecular cytogenetic technique that allows scientists to visualize and map the genetic material in an individual’s cells. This particular test focuses on identifying the translocation of the RARA gene located on chromosome 17q21, a genetic anomaly often associated with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia.

The identification of the RARA gene translocation is crucial for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of APL, as it can significantly influence the therapeutic approach and the patient’s prognosis. The test involves the use of fluorescent probes that bind to specific DNA sequences on chromosome 17, allowing for the precise detection of the RARA gene’s location and its potential translocation.

DNA Labs UAE offers this advanced diagnostic test for a cost of 1200 AED. The facility is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by experienced professionals, ensuring high-quality and reliable test results. By providing this test, DNA Labs UAE plays a vital role in the early detection and management of leukemia, contributing to better patient outcomes.

FISH – RARA 17q21 VARIANT TRANSLOCATION Test

Test Cost: AED 1200.0

Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Test Details

The FISH – RARA (17q21) variant translocation test is a genetic test used to detect a specific chromosomal translocation involving the RARA gene located on chromosome 17q21. This translocation is commonly found in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

The test uses fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique to visualize and detect the translocation. It involves labeling specific DNA probes with fluorescent dyes that bind to the RARA gene and the translocation partner gene. The labeled probes are then applied to a patient’s cells, and if the translocation is present, the probes will bind to the abnormal chromosome, producing a fluorescent signal that can be detected under a microscope.

The FISH – RARA (17q21) variant translocation test is highly specific and sensitive for detecting this specific translocation in APL patients. It is often used as a confirmatory test when APL is suspected based on clinical symptoms and other laboratory tests.

The presence of this translocation has important implications for prognosis and treatment decisions in APL patients.
