Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, leading to muscle weakness, disability, and eventually, death. One of the genetic causes of ALS is mutations in the SOD1 gene, which accounts for about 20% of familial ALS cases […]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Among the various genetic forms of ALS, type 10, caused by mutations in the TARDBP gene, is particularly noteworthy. Understanding the symptoms of TARDBP gene-related ALS and the importance […]
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Among the various genetic mutations linked to ALS, mutations in the FIG4 gene are known to cause a rare subtype of the disease, referred to as ALS type 11. […]
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Among the various types of ALS, type 12, linked to mutations in the OPTN gene, is of particular interest to researchers and clinicians alike. DNA Labs UAE is at […]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. ALS type 14, associated with mutations in the VCP gene, is a rare form of this condition. Understanding the symptoms and undergoing genetic testing can be crucial for individuals […]
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. It leads to the loss of muscle control, making it difficult for those affected to speak, eat, move, and eventually breathe. Among the various genetic forms of this condition, […]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. This condition leads to muscle weakness, disability, and eventually, death. ALS is characterized by its heterogeneity, with numerous genetic variations contributing to its onset and progression. Among these genetic factors, […]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Type 18 ALS, specifically linked to mutations in the PFN1 gene, is one of the genetic forms of this condition. Understanding the symptoms of PFN1 Gene Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis […]
The ATRX Gene Alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome (ATR-X) is a rare and complex genetic condition that affects various aspects of physical and intellectual development. This condition, primarily found in males, is characterized by a combination of alpha-thalassemia, a blood disorder that reduces the production of hemoglobin, and mental retardation, along with a variety of other possible […]
Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood (AHC) is a rare neurological disorder that typically manifests in infancy or early childhood. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of paralysis on one side of the body (hemiplegia), which can switch sides. These episodes can last from minutes to days. The ATP1A2 gene has been identified as one of the […]
