Pre Test Information
Clinical History of Patient who is going for DUOX1 Gene Thyroid dyshormonogenesis type 6 NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with DUOX1 Gene Thyroid dyshormonogenesis type 6 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene DUOX1
Test Details
The DUOX1 gene is responsible for encoding the enzyme dual oxidase 1, which is involved in the production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the thyroid gland. H2O2 is necessary for the synthesis of thyroid hormones. Thyroid dyshormonogenesis type 6 is a genetic disorder characterized by impaired thyroid hormone synthesis due to mutations in the DUOX1 gene. This condition can lead to hypothyroidism, goiter (enlarged thyroid gland), and other thyroid-related problems.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze the DNA sequence of genes, including the DUOX1 gene, to identify any mutations or genetic variations that may be associated with thyroid dyshormonogenesis type 6. This type of testing can help diagnose the condition and guide appropriate treatment strategies.
It is important to note that genetic testing should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and management options.
