ADAM17 Gene Inflammatory Skin and Bowel Disease Neonatal Type 1 Genetic Test
Are you or a loved one experiencing symptoms of inflammatory skin and bowel disease neonatal type 1? DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive genetic test for the ADAM17 gene, which plays a crucial role in inflammation and immune response.
Test Details
The ADAM17 gene, also known as ADAM metallopeptidase domain 17, codes for a protein called ADAM17 or tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE). This protein is responsible for shedding various cell surface proteins, including cytokines, growth factors, and receptors.
Inflammatory skin and bowel disease neonatal type 1 is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the ADAM17 gene. This condition is characterized by severe inflammation of the skin and gastrointestinal tract, leading to symptoms such as skin rashes, diarrhea, and failure to thrive.
Our genetic test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, which allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, including the ADAM17 gene. NGS technology enables rapid and cost-effective sequencing of a large number of genes, providing a comprehensive assessment of genetic variants associated with inflammatory skin and bowel disease neonatal type 1.

Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the ADAM17 Gene Inflammatory Skin and Bowel Disease Neonatal Type 1 Genetic Test, it is important to provide a clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by ADAM17 Gene Inflammatory Skin and Bowel Disease Neonatal Type 1.
Benefits of Genetic Testing
NGS genetic testing for ADAM17 gene mutations can help in the diagnosis of inflammatory skin and bowel disease neonatal type 1. Identifying the specific genetic mutation can aid in confirming the diagnosis, predicting disease severity, and guiding treatment decisions. It can also be used for genetic counseling and family planning purposes.
It is crucial to note that genetic testing should always be done in consultation with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate guidance and support.
