BMPR2 Gene Pulmonary Hypertension Primary Type Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the BMPR2 Gene Pulmonary Hypertension Primary Type Genetic Test. This test is designed to identify variations or mutations in the BMPR2 gene that may contribute to the development of primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH), also known as primary type pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
Test Components and Price
The cost of the BMPR2 Gene Pulmonary Hypertension Primary Type Genetic Test is AED 4400.0. The test can be conducted using a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
The report for the BMPR2 Gene Pulmonary Hypertension Primary Type Genetic Test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method
The test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology, which allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes. This enables the detection of variations or mutations associated with primary pulmonary hypertension.
Test Type and Doctor
The BMPR2 Gene Pulmonary Hypertension Primary Type Genetic Test falls under the category of Vascular Diseases. The test is conducted under the supervision of a General Physician in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the BMPR2 Gene Pulmonary Hypertension Primary Type Genetic Test, it is essential 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 primary pulmonary hypertension.
Test Details
Primary pulmonary hypertension is a rare and progressive disorder characterized by high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries, which supply blood to the lungs. The BMPR2 gene is associated with this condition. NGS genetic testing is used to identify variations or mutations in the BMPR2 gene that may contribute to the development of primary pulmonary hypertension.
Genetic testing for BMPR2 gene mutations plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of primary pulmonary hypertension. It provides valuable information for patients and their families, helping them understand the disease better. The test can also identify individuals at risk of developing primary pulmonary hypertension, enabling early intervention and monitoring.
It is important to note that not all individuals with primary pulmonary hypertension will have a mutation in the BMPR2 gene. Other genetic and environmental factors may also contribute to the development of the condition. Therefore, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or a genetic counselor to understand the implications of the test results.

| Test Details | The BMPR2 gene is associated with primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH), also known as primary type pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). PPH is a rare, progressive disorder characterized by high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries, which supply blood to the lungs. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a technique used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously and detect variations or mutations that may be associated with a particular condition. In the case of PPH, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify variations or mutations in the BMPR2 gene that may contribute to the development of the disease. Genetic testing for BMPR2 gene mutations can help in the diagnosis of PPH and provide valuable information for patients and their families. It can also help identify individuals who may be at risk of developing PPH, allowing for early intervention and monitoring. It is important to note that not all individuals with PPH will have a mutation in the BMPR2 gene, and not all individuals with a mutation in the BMPR2 gene will develop PPH. Other genetic and environmental factors may also contribute to the development of the condition. If you are considering genetic testing for PPH, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or a genetic counselor who can provide guidance and help you understand the implications of the test results. |
