Autoimmune Cerebellar Ataxia Panel Test
Are you experiencing symptoms of autoimmune cerebellar ataxia? DNA Labs UAE offers the Autoimmune Cerebellar Ataxia Panel Test to help diagnose this neurological disorder. The test costs AED 11,790.0 and includes the following components:
- Yo Antibody Screen with Reflex to Titer and Western Blot
- Voltage-Gated Calcium Channel (VGCC) Type P/Q Antibody
- Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) Antibody (IgA)
- IgA (Immunoglobulin A)
For the test, a sample of 3 mL (1.5 mL min.) serum from 1 SST is required. It is recommended to ship the sample refrigerated or frozen, and overnight fasting is preferred. Additionally, a duly filled Test Send Out Consent Form is mandatory.
The report will be delivered after 2-3 weeks, with the sample required to be submitted by the 7th of the month. The test is performed using immunoassay, immunofluorescence assay (IFA), immunoturbidimetry, and radiobinding assay methods.
The Autoimmune Cerebellar Ataxia Panel Test is specifically designed for diagnosing autoimmune cerebellar ataxia, a condition that affects the cerebellum and impairs movement and coordination. This panel of tests looks for antibodies that may be attacking the cerebellum, including antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), Yo protein, Hu protein, Ri protein, Tr protein, and Ma2 protein.
By analyzing the results of the Autoimmune Cerebellar Ataxia Panel Test, neurologists can determine the presence of autoimmune cerebellar ataxia and identify the specific antibodies involved. This information is crucial for guiding treatment decisions and improving patient outcomes.

| Test Details |
The Autoimmune Cerebellar Ataxia Panel is a laboratory test that is used to diagnose autoimmune cerebellar ataxia, a neurological disorder that affects the cerebellum, which is the part of the brain that controls movement and coordination. This panel is a group of tests that look for antibodies that may be attacking the cerebellum. The panel typically includes tests for the following antibodies: 1. Anti-GAD65: This test looks for antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), an enzyme that is important for the production of a neurotransmitter called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). 2. Anti-Yo: This test looks for antibodies against a protein called Yo, which is found in the cerebellum. 3. Anti-Hu: This test looks for antibodies against a protein called Hu, which is found in the nervous system. 4. Anti-Ri: This test looks for antibodies against a protein called Ri, which is found in the nervous system. 5. Anti-Tr: This test looks for antibodies against a protein called Tr, which is found in the nervous system. 6. Anti-Ma2: This test looks for antibodies against a protein called Ma2, which is found in the nervous system. The results of the Autoimmune Cerebellar Ataxia Panel can help doctors determine if a patient has autoimmune cerebellar ataxia and which specific antibodies are involved. This information can help guide treatment decisions and improve patient outcomes. |
