GRN Gene Dementia Frontotemporal Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the GRN Gene Dementia Frontotemporal Genetic Test. This test is designed to help diagnose frontotemporal dementia (FTD) by identifying mutations in the GRN gene. FTD is a group of disorders that affects the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain, resulting in changes in behavior, personality, and language.
Test Details
The GRN gene mutations have been linked to FTD. Our NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing utilizes advanced DNA analysis technology to identify these mutations. By undergoing this test, individuals can gain insight into their risk of developing FTD and receive a potential diagnosis.
Test Components
- Price: 4400.0 AED
- Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
- Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
- Method: NGS Technology
- Test Type: Neurological Disorders
- Doctor: Neurologist
- Test Department: Genetics
Pre-Test Information
Prior to undergoing the GRN Gene Dementia Frontotemporal Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. This information helps our healthcare professionals understand the context of the test and draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by GRN Gene Dementia.
Important Considerations
It is crucial to note that genetic testing alone is not a definitive diagnosis of FTD. A clinical evaluation by a healthcare professional is necessary for an accurate diagnosis. Genetic testing can also have emotional and psychological implications, so it is recommended to consult with a genetic counselor to fully comprehend the potential risks and benefits before undergoing testing.
At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services. If you have any further questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please contact our team.

Test Details |
GRN gene mutations have been linked to a type of dementia called frontotemporal dementia (FTD). FTD is a group of disorders characterized by the degeneration of the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain, leading to changes in behavior, personality, and language.
NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing is a type of DNA analysis that can identify mutations in genes associated with FTD, including the GRN gene. This test can help diagnose FTD and identify individuals who may be at risk of developing the disease.
However, it is important to note that genetic testing is not a definitive diagnosis of FTD, and a clinical evaluation by a healthcare professional is necessary for a proper diagnosis. Additionally, genetic testing can have emotional and psychological implications, and individuals considering testing should speak with a genetic counselor to understand the potential risks and benefits. |
