Test Details
The NPC1 gene is associated with Niemann-Pick Disease Type C1 (NPC1), a rare genetic disorder characterized by the abnormal accumulation of cholesterol and other lipids in the body’s cells. This accumulation can lead to a variety of symptoms, including progressive neurological deterioration, liver dysfunction, and lung problems.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or the entire genome. In the context of NPC1, NGS genetic testing involves sequencing the NPC1 gene to identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be present.
By identifying specific mutations in the NPC1 gene, NGS genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of Niemann-Pick Disease Type C1 and provide important information for patient management and genetic counseling. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of the condition.
It’s important to note that NGS genetic testing for NPC1 is typically performed in specialized laboratories and requires a physician’s order. The test results should be interpreted by a healthcare professional with expertise in genetic testing and genetic disorders.
