Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome (AGS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the brain, immune system, and skin. It is a condition that typically presents in infancy or early childhood and can result in a range of neurological and physical symptoms. One of the genes associated with this condition is the TREX1 gene, and mutations in this […]
Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome (AGS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the brain, the immune system, and the skin. Among the various genes associated with this condition, mutations in the RNASEH2B gene lead to what is specifically known as AGS type 2. This particular type of AGS manifests through a range of symptoms that can significantly […]
Understanding the intricacies of our genetic makeup has never been more accessible, thanks to the advancements in genetic testing technologies. One such advancement is the capability to diagnose specific genetic conditions that were once a challenge to healthcare professionals. Among these conditions is the 46XY gonadal dysgenesis partial with minifascicular neuropathy, a rare genetic disorder […]
Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) plays a pivotal role in regulating human growth and development. It stimulates the pituitary gland to release growth hormone (GH), which is crucial for normal physical growth in children and metabolic functions in adults. An imbalance in GHRH can lead to various health issues, necessitating accurate diagnostic procedures. DNA Labs […]
Epilepsy is a neurological condition characterized by recurrent seizures. These seizures are the result of sudden, excessive electrical discharges in a group of brain cells. Different parts of the brain can initiate a seizure making the condition present itself in various forms. The complexity of epilepsy and its symptoms makes it a challenging condition to […]
Intellectual disability (ID) is a diverse condition characterized by significant limitations in both intellectual functioning and adaptive behavior, which covers many everyday social and practical skills. This condition originates before the age of 18 and affects about 1-3% of the population. Given the complexity and the wide range of intellectual disabilities, identifying the underlying genetic […]

Among the leading facilities offering comprehensive genetic analysis in this domain is DNA Labs UAE, which presents the Neuromuscular Panel NGS Genetic Test. This advanced genetic test is designed to identify mutations in genes known to be associated with […]
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement. It develops gradually, sometimes starting with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand. But while tremor may be a well-known sign of Parkinson’s disease, the disorder also commonly causes stiffness or slowing of movement. As symptoms worsen, it can become difficult to walk, talk, […]
Understanding Spastic Paraplegia and Its Genetic Roots Spastic paraplegia, also known as Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP), encompasses a group of inherited disorders that primarily affect the legs, leading to progressive weakness and stiffness (spasticity). These conditions can vary significantly in their severity and in the age at which they first appear. While some individuals may […]
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. The disease leads to the degeneration and death of motor neurons, which are essential for controlling voluntary muscle movement. As these motor neurons die, the brain loses its ability […]
