Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 6 (EDMD6) is a rare genetic condition characterized by muscle weakness and wasting, joint contractures, and cardiac abnormalities. This condition is caused by mutations in the FHL1 gene, which plays a crucial role in muscle development and function. Identifying mutations in the FHL1 gene is essential for diagnosing EDMD6, assessing the risk of passing the condition to offspring, and guiding treatment and management decisions.

DNA Labs UAE offers a genetic test specifically designed to detect mutations in the FHL1 gene associated with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 6. This test is a vital tool for individuals with a family history of EDMD6 or those presenting symptoms suggestive of the condition. The genetic test involves analyzing the patient’s DNA, extracted from a blood sample, to identify any mutations in the FHL1 gene.

The cost of the FHL1 gene test for Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 6 at DNA Labs UAE is 4400 AED. This price includes the collection of the sample, the genetic analysis, and a comprehensive report detailing the results and their implications for the patient’s health and family planning. Patients considering this test are encouraged to discuss it with their healthcare provider to understand its benefits and limitations fully.

Pre Test Information

Before undergoing the FHL1 Gene Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy Type 6 NGS Genetic DNA Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session is conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the disorder.

Test Details

The FHL1 gene Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy Type 6 NGS genetic test is a diagnostic tool that identifies mutations in the FHL1 gene. This gene is responsible for producing a protein called four-and-a-half LIM domains 1, which plays a crucial role in muscle cell structure and function.

Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy Type 6 is a rare genetic disorder characterized by muscle weakness and wasting, heart problems, and joint stiffness. Mutations in the FHL1 gene are known to cause this condition.

NGS technology enables the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, making it a powerful tool for genetic testing. The FHL1 gene Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy Type 6 NGS genetic test can detect various types of mutations, including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), small insertions and deletions (indels), and larger structural variants like deletions and duplications.

The test is typically performed on a blood or saliva sample, and results are usually available within a few weeks. A positive result indicates the presence of a mutation in the FHL1 gene, confirming a diagnosis of Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy Type 6. This information is crucial for guiding treatment and management decisions, as well as providing important information for at-risk family members.

Test Details

FHL1 gene Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 6 NGS genetic test is a diagnostic test that uses Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to detect mutations in the FHL1 gene. This gene provides instructions for making a protein called four-and-a-half LIM domains 1, which is involved in the structure and function of muscle cells. Mutations in the FHL1 gene can cause Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 6, a rare genetic disorder that affects muscle function and can lead to muscle weakness and wasting, heart problems, and joint stiffness.

NGS technology allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, making it a powerful tool for genetic testing. The FHL1 gene Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 6 NGS genetic test can identify a wide range of mutations in the FHL1 gene, including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), small insertions and deletions (indels), and larger structural variants such as deletions and duplications.

This test is typically performed on a blood or saliva sample, and results are typically available within a few weeks. A positive result indicates the presence of a mutation in the FHL1 gene, confirming a diagnosis of Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 6. This information can help guide treatment and management decisions, as well as provide important information for family members who may be at risk of inheriting the condition.
