ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test. This test is designed to diagnose and analyze the ATXN8OS gene associated with Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 (SCA8), an autosomal dominant genetic disorder.
Test Components and Price
The price for the ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test is 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood or extracted DNA sample, or one drop of blood on an FTA Card.
Report Delivery
The report for the ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method
The ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously and identify genetic variations or mutations associated with neurological disorders.
Test Type
The ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test falls under the category of Neurological Disorders.
Doctor and Test Department
This test is performed by a Neurologist in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant.
Test Details
The ATXN8OS (Ataxin 8 opposite strand) gene is associated with Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 (SCA8), which is characterized by progressive cerebellar ataxia. This disorder leads to problems with coordination and balance.
The NGS genetic testing technique is used to analyze the ATXN8OS gene and identify any mutations or expansions responsible for the development of SCA8. This test involves extracting DNA from a blood or saliva sample and sequencing the ATXN8OS gene to detect variations or mutations.
The ATXN8OS Gene Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 autosomal dominant Genetic Test is essential for confirming a diagnosis of SCA8 and can also be utilized for genetic counseling and family planning purposes.
Please note that it is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor for proper interpretation of the test results and to receive appropriate counseling and support.

Test Details |
ATXN8OS (Ataxin 8 opposite strand) gene is associated with Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 (SCA8), an autosomal dominant genetic disorder. SCA8 is characterized by progressive cerebellar ataxia, which leads to problems with coordination and balance. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a technique used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously and identify genetic variations or mutations that may be associated with a particular disorder. In the case of SCA8, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or expansions in the ATXN8OS gene that are responsible for the development of the disorder. The NGS genetic test for SCA8 typically involves extracting DNA from a blood or saliva sample and sequencing the ATXN8OS gene to identify any variations or mutations. This test can help in confirming a diagnosis of SCA8 and can also be used for genetic counseling and family planning purposes. It’s important to note that genetic testing should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support. |
