Spinal Muscular Atrophy Distal Autosomal Recessive Type 4 (SMA-DAR4), also known as Spinal Muscular Atrophy with Lower Extremity Predominance 2 (SMA-LED2), is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the PLEKHG5 gene. This condition is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and atrophy, predominantly affecting the lower limbs. The disease’s onset can vary from early […]
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a severe genetic disorder that affects the motor neurons in the spinal cord, leading to progressive muscle wasting and weakness. Among its types, SMA Type 1, also known as Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, is the most severe and early-onset form, typically manifesting within the first six months of a child’s life. The […]
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disorder that affects the control of muscle movement. It is caused by a loss of specialized nerve cells, called motor neurons, in the spinal cord and the part of the brain that is connected to the spinal cord. The SMN1 gene plays a crucial role in the production […]
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disorder that affects the control of muscle movement. It is caused by a loss of specialized nerve cells, known as motor neurons, in the spinal cord and the part of the brain that is connected to the spinal cord. SMA leads to the weakening and wasting of muscles […]
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disorder characterized by the loss of motor neurons in the spinal cord, leading to muscle wasting and weakness. Among its types, Type 4 SMA, also known as adult-onset SMA, is less common and presents milder symptoms that typically emerge after the age of 30. Understanding the genetic basis […]
Symptoms of DNAJB2 Gene Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 5 Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 5, caused by mutations in the DNAJB2 gene, is a rare genetic disorder that affects the motor neurons, leading to muscle weakness and atrophy. This condition is part of a group of hereditary diseases that impair the control of muscle movement. Understanding […]
Spinal Muscular Atrophy with Progressive Myoclonic Epilepsy (SMA-PME) is a rare, genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting (atrophy), along with an uncontrolled jerking movement known as myoclonic epilepsy. This condition is caused by mutations in the ASAH1 gene, which plays a crucial role in the metabolism of certain fats in the body. […]

DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive genetic test for this condition, helping families and individuals gain crucial insights into their genetic health. Understanding the […]
Understanding the symptoms of a genetic condition is crucial for early diagnosis and management. One such condition that has garnered attention in the medical community is related to the FLRT1 gene, known as SPG68. This article delves into the symptoms associated with the FLRT1 gene mutation, the importance of the FLRT1 Related Genetic Test, and […]
Spinal Muscular Atrophy Lower Extremity Autosomal Dominant Type 2 (SMA-LED2) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by muscle weakness and atrophy, predominantly affecting the lower limbs. It is caused by mutations in the BICD2 gene. Understanding the symptoms of this condition is crucial for early diagnosis and management. DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive genetic […]
