Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency is a rare genetic disorder affecting the way signals are passed between cells in the nervous system. This condition stems from mutations in the DDC gene, which is responsible for the production of the AADC enzyme. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the synthesis of neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin, which are vital for regulating numerous functions in the body, including movement, mood, and behavior.

To diagnose this condition, a genetic test can be conducted to identify mutations in the DDC gene. DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive genetic test specifically designed to detect these mutations, aiding in the accurate diagnosis of AADC deficiency. The cost of this test is 4400 AED.

This genetic testing is crucial for the early diagnosis and management of AADC deficiency. Early diagnosis can lead to interventions that may significantly improve the quality of life for individuals with this condition. The test involves a simple process of collecting a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or cheek swab, which is then analyzed in the laboratory for the presence of mutations in the DDC gene.

If you suspect you or your child may be showing symptoms of AADC deficiency, or if there’s a family history of the condition, it’s advisable to discuss the possibility of undergoing genetic testing at DNA Labs UAE with your healthcare provider.

DDC Gene Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency AADC Genetic Test

Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the DDC Gene Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADC) Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0.

Test Details

The DDC gene Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADC) NGS Genetic Test is a genetic test that analyzes the DDC gene for mutations associated with Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADC). AADC is a rare genetic disorder that affects the production of dopamine and serotonin in the brain.

The test uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to sequence the DDC gene and identify any mutations or variations that may be present. This can help in the diagnosis of AADC and provide information about the specific genetic changes causing the condition.

The DDC gene provides instructions for making the enzyme AADC, which is involved in the production of dopamine and serotonin. Mutations in the DDC gene can lead to reduced or absent AADC activity, resulting in the symptoms of AADC deficiency.

Symptoms

Symptoms of AADC deficiency may include developmental delays, low muscle tone, movement disorders, autonomic dysfunction, and neurological abnormalities. The severity and specific symptoms can vary widely among affected individuals.

Test Type and Components

The DDC gene AADC NGS Genetic Test is classified as a Metabolic Disorders test and can be performed using blood or extracted DNA. Alternatively, one drop of blood on an FTA Card can also be used for the test.

Report Delivery and Method

The report for the DDC gene AADC NGS Genetic Test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test utilizes NGS technology for analysis.

Test Department and Doctor

The DDC gene AADC NGS Genetic Test is conducted in the Genetics department and can be requested by a General Physician.

Pre Test Information

Before undergoing the DDC gene AADC NGS Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the test. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADC).

Uses of the Test

The DDC gene AADC NGS Genetic Test can be used for diagnostic purposes, as well as for carrier testing and prenatal testing in families with a known history of AADC deficiency. It can help to confirm a diagnosis, guide treatment decisions, and provide information about the risk of passing the condition to future generations.

It is important to note that genetic testing should be done in consultation with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide guidance on the implications of the test results and help with interpreting the findings.
