Pre Test Information:
Clinical History of Patient who is going for PIEZO2 Gene Marden-Walker Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test
A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with PIEZO2 Gene Marden-Walker Syndrome
Test Details:
The PIEZO2 gene is responsible for encoding the PIEZO2 protein, which is involved in the sense of touch and proprioception (the perception of one’s body position and movement). Mutations in the PIEZO2 gene can lead to a rare genetic disorder known as Marden-Walker syndrome.
Marden-Walker syndrome is characterized by a combination of features including joint contractures (stiff joints), muscle weakness, intellectual disability, and facial abnormalities. Individuals with Marden-Walker syndrome may also have a small head (microcephaly), cleft palate, and respiratory difficulties.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the PIEZO2 gene. This type of testing involves sequencing the entire coding region of the gene to detect any changes or variations in the DNA sequence. NGS is a powerful tool that allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously, providing a comprehensive genetic profile.
Genetic testing for Marden-Walker syndrome can help confirm a diagnosis in individuals with suspected symptoms and can also be used for carrier testing in families with a history of the condition. It can provide important information for healthcare providers and genetic counselors to guide patient management and offer appropriate support and resources.
It’s important to note that genetic testing should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support.
