The DCX Gene Lissencephaly X-Linked Type 1 Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure offered at DNA Labs UAE, designed to detect mutations in the DCX gene, which are linked to Lissencephaly X-Linked Type 1. Lissencephaly, meaning “smooth brain,” is a rare, genetic brain malformation characterized by the absence of normal brain folds and grooves. This condition primarily affects males and can lead to severe intellectual disability, developmental delay, muscle spasticity, seizures, and other neurological problems.

The test is crucial for families seeking to understand the genetic basis of the condition, as it can provide definitive confirmation of the diagnosis. This is particularly important for genetic counseling, understanding the risk of recurrence in future pregnancies, and for tailoring appropriate therapeutic interventions and support for affected individuals.

Priced at 4400 AED, the test involves collecting a DNA sample, typically through a blood draw or cheek swab, which is then analyzed in the state-of-the-art facilities at DNA Labs UAE. The lab employs cutting-edge genetic sequencing technologies to identify mutations in the DCX gene, ensuring high accuracy and reliability of the results.

By opting for the DCX Gene Lissencephaly X-Linked Type 1 Genetic Test at DNA Labs UAE, families and individuals are taking a significant step towards understanding and managing this complex condition, armed with precise genetic information that can inform medical and personal decisions.

DCX Gene Lissencephaly X-linked type 1 Genetic Test

Components: DCX Gene Lissencephaly X-linked type 1 Genetic Test

Price: 4400.0 AED

Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card

Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks

Method: NGS Technology

Test Type: Dysmorphology

Doctor: Pediatrics

Test Department: Genetics

Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for DCX Gene Lissencephaly, X-linked type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with DCX Gene Lissencephaly, X-linked type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene DCX

Test Details: DCX gene lissencephaly, X-linked type 1 NGS genetic test is a genetic test that analyzes the DCX gene for mutations associated with lissencephaly, a rare brain development disorder. Lissencephaly is characterized by the absence or underdevelopment of brain folds (gyri) and a smooth brain surface (agyria or pachygyria). This genetic test uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to identify variations in the DCX gene. Mutations in the DCX gene are responsible for X-linked lissencephaly type 1, which primarily affects males. Females can also be carriers of the mutation and may exhibit milder symptoms. The NGS genetic test for DCX gene lissencephaly helps in the diagnosis of affected individuals, identifies carriers, and provides information for genetic counseling. Early diagnosis through genetic testing can help in the management and treatment of the condition. It is important to note that this genetic test specifically targets the DCX gene and is not a comprehensive analysis of all genes associated with lissencephaly. Other genes, such as LIS1 (PAFAH1B1) and TUBA1A, are also associated with lissencephaly and may require separate testing if suspected. Genetic testing for lissencephaly should be performed by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate guidance and support.
