ADAR Gene Dyschromatosis Symmetrica Hereditaria Genetic Test
Introduction
DNA Labs UAE offers the ADAR Gene Dyschromatosis Symmetrica Hereditaria Genetic Test, a comprehensive genetic test that helps diagnose and understand the rare genetic disorder known as Dyschromatosis Symmetrica Hereditaria (DSH). This test analyzes the ADAR gene, which is responsible for encoding the enzyme adenosine deaminase acting on RNA.
Symptoms and Diagnosis
DSH is characterized by hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules on the skin of the face, neck, and dorsal aspects of the extremities. To diagnose this condition, a clinical history of the patient is taken, and a pedigree chart of affected family members is drawn during a genetic counseling session. This information is crucial in determining the need for the ADAR Gene Dyschromatosis Symmetrica Hereditaria NGS Genetic DNA Test.
Test Details
The ADAR Gene Dyschromatosis Symmetrica Hereditaria Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-generation sequencing) technology, which allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes. By analyzing the ADAR gene, this test can identify mutations responsible for DSH, providing a definitive diagnosis. The test is conducted using a blood sample, and the results are delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Components and Price
The cost of the ADAR Gene Dyschromatosis Symmetrica Hereditaria Genetic Test is 4400.0 AED. The test is conducted in the Genetics department and is performed by an Ophthalmologist.
Benefits of the Test
NGS genetic testing for DSH offers several benefits. It improves the accuracy and speed of diagnosis, provides valuable information for genetic counseling and family planning, and helps individuals and families better understand the genetic basis of the condition. Additionally, this test can identify carriers of the mutation who may be at risk of passing the condition on to their children.
Conclusion
The ADAR Gene Dyschromatosis Symmetrica Hereditaria Genetic Test offered by DNA Labs UAE is a valuable tool in diagnosing and understanding DSH. By analyzing the ADAR gene using NGS technology, this test provides a definitive diagnosis and helps individuals and families make informed decisions regarding treatment and family planning.

| Test Details |
Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules on the skin of the face, neck, and dorsal aspects of the extremities. It is caused by mutations in the ADAR gene, which encodes for the enzyme adenosine deaminase acting on RNA. NGS (Next-generation sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that uses high-throughput sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. This type of testing can be used to identify mutations in the ADAR gene that are responsible for DSH. NGS genetic testing for DSH can provide a definitive diagnosis, which can be helpful for genetic counseling and family planning. It can also be used to identify carriers of the mutation who may be at risk of passing the condition on to their children. Overall, NGS genetic testing for DSH can help improve the accuracy and speed of diagnosis, as well as inform treatment decisions and help individuals and families better understand the genetic basis of the condition. |
