ELP1 Gene HSAN3 Genetic Test – Cost AED 4400.0
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the ELP1 Gene HSAN3 Genetic Test for individuals with suspected hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 3 (HSAN3). This comprehensive test can provide valuable information for diagnosis, management, and family planning decisions.
Test Details
The ELP1 gene is associated with HSAN3, a rare neurological disorder characterized by progressive sensory loss, primarily in the feet and lower legs. This can lead to ulcers, infections, and other complications due to the lack of pain sensation. HSAN3 can also affect the autonomic nervous system, leading to problems with blood pressure regulation, sweating, and bowel and bladder control.
Our ELP1 Gene HSAN3 Genetic Test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, which allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes. This comprehensive approach provides a thorough assessment of an individual’s genetic makeup and can identify mutations or variations in the ELP1 gene associated with HSAN3.
Test Components and Price
The ELP1 Gene HSAN3 Genetic Test is priced at AED 4400.0. The test requires a blood sample or extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA Card. The test results will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Type and Doctor
The ELP1 Gene HSAN3 Genetic Test falls under the category of Neurological Disorders. It is recommended to consult with a Neurologist for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
The ELP1 Gene HSAN3 Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department. Before undergoing the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the test. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by ELP1 Gene HSAN3.
Benefits of Genetic Testing for HSAN3
Genetic testing for HSAN3 can provide valuable information for individuals and families affected by the condition. Early intervention and management strategies can be implemented based on the test results. Genetic testing also aids in genetic counseling and family planning decisions. In families with a known ELP1 gene mutation, prenatal testing can be performed.
It is important to note that genetic testing may not be available or necessary for all individuals with suspected HSAN3. We recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for guidance on appropriate testing and interpretation of results.

Test Details |
ELP1 gene is associated with a neurological disorder called hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 3 (HSAN3). HSAN3 is a rare genetic condition characterized by progressive sensory loss, often starting in the feet and lower legs, and can lead to ulcers and infections due to lack of pain sensation. It can also affect the autonomic nervous system, leading to problems with blood pressure regulation, sweating, and bowel and bladder control. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, providing a comprehensive assessment of an individual’s genetic makeup. This type of testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the ELP1 gene associated with HSAN3. NGS genetic testing for HSAN3 can help diagnose individuals with the condition, confirm a suspected diagnosis, or identify carriers of the gene mutation. It can also be used for prenatal testing in families with a known ELP1 gene mutation. Genetic testing can provide valuable information for individuals and families affected by HSAN3, allowing for early intervention and management strategies. It can also aid in genetic counseling and family planning decisions. However, it is important to note that genetic testing may not be available or necessary for all individuals with suspected HSAN3, and a healthcare professional should be consulted for guidance on appropriate testing and interpretation of results. |
