The ACADL gene is responsible for encoding an enzyme known as long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCAD), which plays a crucial role in the mitochondrial oxidation of long-chain fatty acids. Mutations in the ACADL gene can lead to LCAD deficiency, a rare and potentially serious condition that impairs the body’s ability to convert certain fats into energy. This can result in symptoms ranging from hypoglycemia and muscle weakness to more severe complications such as cardiomyopathy and liver dysfunction.

To diagnose LCAD deficiency, a genetic test targeting the ACADL gene can be conducted. This test involves analyzing the DNA to identify mutations in the ACADL gene that are known to cause the disorder. It is a crucial step for confirming the diagnosis, understanding the risk of passing the condition to offspring, and guiding treatment decisions.

In the United Arab Emirates, this specific genetic test can be performed at DNA Labs UAE, a facility renowned for its comprehensive genetic testing services. The cost of the ACADL Gene LCAD Deficiency Genetic Test at DNA Labs UAE is set at 4400 AED. This price reflects the complex nature of the testing process, which includes DNA extraction, sequencing or genotyping, and the expert analysis required to interpret the results accurately. By providing this test, DNA Labs UAE offers an essential resource for individuals and families affected by LCAD deficiency, facilitating early diagnosis and intervention that can significantly improve outcomes.

ACADL Gene LCAD deficiency Genetic Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the ACADL Gene LCAD deficiency Genetic Test for individuals suspected of having LCAD deficiency. This test analyzes the ACADL gene for mutations associated with LCAD deficiency, a rare genetic disorder characterized by the inability to break down certain fats for energy production.

Test Details

The ACADL gene LCAD deficiency NGS genetic test is performed using NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology. This high-throughput sequencing technology allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. In the case of ACADL gene LCAD deficiency NGS genetic test, it involves sequencing the ACADL gene to identify any mutations or variants that may be responsible for LCAD deficiency.

Pre Test Information

Before undergoing the ACADL Gene LCAD deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with LCAD deficiency. This information helps in understanding the genetic background and potential inheritance patterns of the disorder.

Benefits of the Test

The ACADL gene LCAD deficiency NGS genetic test can help in several ways:

  • Diagnosis: It can assist in diagnosing LCAD deficiency in individuals who present with symptoms suggestive of the disorder.
  • Carrier Testing: It can be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of LCAD deficiency. This test can identify individuals who carry a mutation in the ACADL gene but do not show symptoms of the disorder themselves.
  • Genetic Counseling: The results of the test provide valuable information for genetic counseling, allowing individuals and families to make informed decisions about family planning and management of LCAD deficiency.
  • Treatment and Management: The test results can help in determining the best course of treatment and management strategies for affected individuals.

At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services. Our ACADL Gene LCAD deficiency Genetic Test can help in identifying and managing LCAD deficiency, ultimately improving the quality of life for affected individuals and their families.
