Test Details:
Hemochromatosis HFE Full Gene Sequence Analysis is a genetic test that analyzes the HFE gene for mutations that are associated with hemochromatosis. Hemochromatosis is a genetic disorder that causes the body to absorb too much iron from the diet, leading to iron overload and damage to organs such as the liver, heart, and pancreas. The HFE gene provides instructions for making a protein that helps regulate the amount of iron in the body. Mutations in the HFE gene can disrupt this process, leading to excessive iron absorption and accumulation in the body.
The Hemochromatosis HFE Full Gene Sequence Analysis test involves sequencing the entire HFE gene to identify any mutations or variants that may be associated with hemochromatosis. This test can help diagnose hemochromatosis and identify individuals who may be at risk for developing the condition. The test is typically performed on a blood or saliva sample, and results are usually available within a few weeks.
Treatment for hemochromatosis typically involves regular blood removal (phlebotomy) to reduce iron levels in the body. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent serious complications of hemochromatosis.
