MECP2 Gene Rett Syndrome Preserved Speech Variant Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the MECP2 Gene Rett Syndrome Preserved Speech Variant Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0.
Test Components
The test includes:
- Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
Report Delivery
Reports are delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method
We use NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology for this genetic test.
Test Type
This test is specifically designed for neurological disorders.
Doctor
Our qualified neurologists will oversee the testing process.
Test Department
This test is conducted by our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, we recommend a genetic counseling session to gather clinical history and draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by MECP2 Gene Rett Syndrome Preserved Speech Variant.
Test Details
The MECP2 gene is associated with Rett syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that mainly affects females. Rett syndrome is characterized by severe cognitive and physical impairments, loss of purposeful hand skills, and the development of repetitive hand movements.
However, there is a variant of Rett syndrome called the preserved speech variant, where affected individuals have some degree of preserved speech and cognitive abilities.
NGS genetic testing is a type of genetic test that uses advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of Rett syndrome, NGS genetic testing can be used to analyze the MECP2 gene for mutations or variations that may be associated with the preserved speech variant.
NGS genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of Rett syndrome and provide information about the specific genetic variant present in an individual. This information can be valuable for understanding the prognosis, potential treatment options, and recurrence risk for affected individuals and their families.
It is important to note that genetic testing for Rett syndrome, including the preserved speech variant, should be performed by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate guidance and support.
