The SLC6A5 gene hyperekplexia genetic test is a specialized diagnostic tool designed to identify mutations in the SLC6A5 gene, which are known to cause hyperekplexia. Hyperekplexia, also known as startle disease, is a rare genetic disorder characterized by an exaggerated startle response to sudden stimuli, stiffness, and, in severe cases, apnea and sudden infant death. The condition is primarily inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, though autosomal recessive inheritance has also been observed.

The test involves collecting a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or cheek swab, which is then analyzed to detect any genetic alterations in the SLC6A5 gene. Identifying these mutations can confirm a diagnosis of hyperekplexia, allowing for appropriate management and treatment of the condition. It can also provide valuable information for family planning and genetic counseling for affected families.

In the UAE, this specific genetic test is available at DNA Labs UAE, a leading facility in genetic testing and personalized medicine. The cost of the SLC6A5 gene hyperekplexia genetic test at DNA Labs UAE is set at 4400 AED. This test is crucial for individuals with a family history of hyperekplexia or those exhibiting symptoms of the disorder, providing them with a definitive diagnosis and guiding their treatment plans.

SLC6A5 Gene Hyperekplexia Genetic Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the SLC6A5 Gene Hyperekplexia Genetic Test. This test is designed to diagnose and understand the genetic disorder known as hyperekplexia, or startle disease.

Test Details

Hyperekplexia is a rare neurological condition characterized by an exaggerated startle response, muscle stiffness, and an increased risk of falling. The SLC6A5 gene is associated with this disorder.

Our SLC6A5 Gene Hyperekplexia Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology. This advanced sequencing method allows us to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, providing a comprehensive assessment of genetic variants associated with hyperekplexia.

The test involves analyzing the entire coding region of the SLC6A5 gene. By identifying mutations or variations in this gene, we can confirm a diagnosis, understand the underlying genetic cause, and guide appropriate treatment and management strategies.

Test Components and Price

The SLC6A5 Gene Hyperekplexia Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test can be performed using a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.

Report Delivery and Test Department

After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test is conducted in our Genetics department.

Referring Doctor and Test Type

This test is typically referred by a Neurologist, as it falls under the category of Neurological Disorders.

Pre Test Information

Before undergoing the SLC6A5 Gene Hyperekplexia Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by SLC6A5 Gene Hyperekplexia.

Genetic Counseling

Genetic counseling is an integral part of the testing process. It helps individuals understand the implications of the test results and make informed decisions about their healthcare.

It is important to note that genetic testing for hyperekplexia is typically recommended for individuals who have symptoms consistent with the disorder, as well as their family members.

At DNA Labs UAE, we are dedicated to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services. If you or your family members are experiencing symptoms of hyperekplexia, we encourage you to consult with a Neurologist and consider the SLC6A5 Gene Hyperekplexia Genetic Test.
