CSTB Gene Unverricht-Lundborg disease Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the CSTB Gene Unverricht-Lundborg disease Genetic Test for individuals who suspect they may have Unverricht-Lundborg disease (ULD). This test focuses on the CSTB gene, which is associated with ULD, a progressive myoclonic epilepsy disorder characterized by sudden muscle jerks or twitches.
Test Components and Price
The CSTB Gene Unverricht-Lundborg disease Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood sample or extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery and Method
After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, which allows for the rapid and efficient sequencing of large amounts of genetic material.
Test Type and Doctor
The CSTB Gene Unverricht-Lundborg disease Genetic Test falls under the category of Neurological Disorders. It is conducted by our experienced neurologists in the Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is undergoing the CSTB Gene Unverricht-Lundborg disease NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by ULD.
Test Details
The CSTB gene Unverricht-Lundborg disease NGS genetic test focuses on analyzing specific regions of the CSTB gene to identify disease-causing mutations or variations. This information is crucial in confirming a diagnosis of ULD and providing insights into the specific genetic variant responsible for the disease.
NGS technology plays a significant role in this test, allowing for the efficient sequencing of genetic material. The results obtained from this test can be utilized for genetic counseling, family planning, and potentially for the development of targeted therapies in the future.

Test Details |
CSTB gene Unverricht-Lundborg disease NGS genetic test is a type of genetic test that focuses on the CSTB gene to diagnose Unverricht-Lundborg disease (ULD). ULD is an inherited neurological disorder characterized by progressive myoclonic epilepsy, which causes sudden, brief muscle jerks or twitches. NGS stands for Next-Generation Sequencing, which is a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology that allows for the rapid and efficient sequencing of large amounts of genetic material. In the context of the CSTB gene ULD genetic test, NGS is used to analyze the specific regions of the CSTB gene to identify any disease-causing mutations or variations. By detecting mutations in the CSTB gene, this genetic test can help confirm a diagnosis of ULD and provide information about the specific genetic variant causing the disease. This information can be valuable for genetic counseling, family planning, and potentially for the development of targeted therapies in the future. |
