ABCB11 Gene Cholestasis benign recurrent intrahepatic type 2 Genetic Test Cost
The ABCB11 gene plays a crucial role in the body by coding for the bile salt export pump (BSEP), which is essential for the transport of bile acids from liver cells into the bile ducts. Mutations in the ABCB11 gene can lead to a condition known as benign recurrent intraheptic cholestasis type 2 (BRIC2), characterized by episodes of liver dysfunction that can cause jaundice, itching, and elevated liver enzymes. These episodes are typically not associated with long-term liver damage and tend to recur throughout life. To diagnose this condition, a genetic test targeting the ABCB11 gene can be performed. This test is particularly useful for individuals experiencing symptoms of cholestasis with no apparent cause, or for those with a family history of liver disorders. By analyzing the DNA for specific mutations in the ABCB11 gene, healthcare providers can confirm a diagnosis of BRIC2, which can significantly aid in the management and treatment of the condition. In the UAE, DNA Labs UAE offers this specialized genetic test for the ABCB11 gene. The cost of the test is 4400 AED.
