ACTN1 Gene Bleeding disorder platelet-type 15 Genetic Test
Are you concerned about a possible bleeding disorder? DNA Labs UAE offers the ACTN1 Gene Bleeding disorder platelet-type 15 Genetic Test to provide you with accurate and reliable results. Read on to learn more about this test and its significance in diagnosing platelet-type 15.
Test Details
The ACTN1 gene is responsible for producing a protein called alpha-actinin-1, which plays a crucial role in the structure and function of platelets. Platelets are blood cells that are essential for blood clotting. When there are mutations in the ACTN1 gene, it can lead to a bleeding disorder known as platelet-type 15.
Platelet-type 15 is an inherited condition characterized by abnormal platelet function, which increases the risk of bleeding. Individuals with this condition may experience symptoms such as easy bruising, nosebleeds, prolonged bleeding after injuries or surgeries, and heavy or prolonged menstrual periods.
Our ACTN1 Gene Bleeding disorder platelet-type 15 Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology. NGS genetic testing allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously to identify mutations or variations in the DNA sequence. In the case of platelet-type 15, this test specifically focuses on identifying mutations in the ACTN1 gene associated with the bleeding disorder.
By identifying these mutations, our NGS genetic testing can aid in the diagnosis of individuals with platelet-type 15. It also provides valuable information for treatment and management strategies. Additionally, this test can be used for carrier testing in families with a history of the condition, enabling informed family planning decisions.
It’s important to note that genetic testing should always be performed and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals. Our team of expert hematologists in the Genetics department will ensure accurate testing, provide appropriate counseling, and offer guidance based on the test results.
