Epilepsy is a complex neurological condition characterized by recurrent seizures. Among its various types, Generalized Epilepsy with Febrile Seizures Plus (GEFS+) stands out due to its genetic links, particularly to mutations in the SCN1A gene. Understanding this condition is crucial for affected families, and DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive genetic test specifically designed to […]
At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing comprehensive genetic testing services to help diagnose and manage a variety of conditions, including epilepsy. One specific focus of our work is on the diagnosis of Generalized Epilepsy with Febrile Seizures Plus Type 1 (GEFS+ Type 1), which is associated with mutations in the SCN1B gene. […]
In the realm of genetic testing and diagnostics, understanding the underlying causes of neurological disorders is paramount. Among these disorders, Generalized Epilepsy and Paroxysmal Dyskinesia are particularly challenging conditions, affecting individuals with varying degrees of severity. A significant breakthrough in understanding these conditions has been the identification of the KCNMA1 gene’s role in these disorders. […]
Understanding the complexities of genetic conditions is pivotal in modern healthcare. Among these conditions, a particularly intriguing one is associated with the ROBO3 gene, which can lead to gaze palsy horizontal with progressive scoliosis. This condition is rare and often requires specialized genetic testing for accurate diagnosis and management. DNA Labs UAE stands at the […]
In the realm of genetic testing and diagnostics, DNA Labs UAE stands at the forefront, offering a comprehensive array of tests designed to identify various genetic disorders, including the Fukuyama Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (FCMD) genetic test. This particular test focuses on the FKTN gene mutations, which are responsible for FCMD, a severe form of muscular […]
Fucosidosis is a rare, genetic disorder that is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme alpha-L-fucosidase, which is necessary for breaking down complex sugar molecules in the body. This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene, one from each parent, to be […]
In the realm of genetic diagnostics, understanding and identifying specific genetic conditions early on can lead to better management and treatment options. One such condition that has garnered attention in the medical community is Frontometaphyseal Dysplasia (FMD), a disorder that stems from mutations in the FLNA gene. DNA Labs UAE, a leading facility in genetic […]
Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is a rare, inherited disease that causes progressive damage to the nervous system. It manifests in symptoms ranging from gait disturbance and speech problems to heart disease. The condition is named after the physician Nicholaus Friedreich, who first described the syndrome in the 1860s. It’s caused by a defect in the FXN […]
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a genetic condition that primarily affects older adults, leading to problems with movement, cognition, and daily functioning. This disorder is linked to mutations in the FMR1 gene, which is also associated with Fragile X syndrome, the most common form of inherited intellectual disability. Understanding the symptoms and undergoing genetic […]
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a genetic condition that causes a range of developmental problems, including learning disabilities and cognitive impairment. It is the most common form of inherited intellectual disability in males and a significant cause of intellectual disability in females. The condition is linked to mutations in the FMR1 gene, which plays a […]
