The Immunohistochemistry Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure performed at DNA Labs UAE. Priced at 410 AED, this test is crucial for the detection and analysis of GFAP, a protein predominantly found in the astrocytes of the central nervous system. GFAP plays a significant role in maintaining the structural integrity of the nervous system and is involved in various critical processes including repair following CNS injury.

The test employs immunohistochemistry techniques, which involve the use of specific antibodies to identify the presence of GFAP in tissue samples. This method provides valuable insights into the health and condition of the nervous system, aiding in the diagnosis of a range of neurological conditions such as gliomas, astrocytomas, and other glial cell-related pathologies. Given its specificity and sensitivity, the GFAP test is a powerful tool in neuropathological diagnosis and research, offering a detailed understanding of glial cell behavior and neurodegenerative diseases.

At DNA Labs UAE, the test is conducted under stringent quality control measures, ensuring accurate and reliable results. The cost of 410 AED includes all necessary procedures to accurately detect and quantify GFAP expression, making it a valuable investment for individuals seeking detailed insights into their neurological health.

Test Details:

The immunohistochemistry GFAP test is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in tissue samples. GFAP is a protein primarily found in astrocytes, a type of glial cell in the central nervous system.

The test involves staining tissue sections with specific antibodies that bind to GFAP. The antibodies are usually labeled with a fluorescent dye or an enzyme that produces a color reaction. When the antibodies bind to GFAP, they create a visible signal that can be observed under a microscope.

The GFAP test is commonly used in neuropathology to identify and classify brain tumors, as GFAP is highly expressed in astrocytic tumors such as glioblastoma. The test can also be used to study the distribution and morphology of astrocytes in normal and diseased brain tissue.

Interpretation of the test results depends on the intensity and pattern of GFAP staining. Positive staining indicates the presence of GFAP, suggesting the presence of astrocytes or astrocytic tumors. Negative staining suggests the absence of GFAP or a lack of astrocytes in the tissue sample.

Overall, the immunohistochemistry GFAP test is a valuable tool in diagnosing and studying brain tumors and other neurological disorders involving astrocytes.
