The GAD-65 (Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase-65) IgG Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure aimed at detecting antibodies against the enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) in the blood. GAD plays a crucial role in the synthesis of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter involved in regulating nerve signals in the brain. The presence of GAD-65 antibodies is commonly associated with autoimmune disorders, including type 1 diabetes and certain neurological conditions such as Stiff Person Syndrome.

This test is particularly significant for individuals exhibiting symptoms suggestive of these autoimmune disorders or for those with a family history of type 1 diabetes, as it helps in the early detection and management of the condition. The test involves drawing a blood sample from the patient, which is then analyzed for the presence of GAD-65 IgG antibodies.

At DNA Labs UAE, the GAD-65 IgG Test is available for a cost of 1450 AED. The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by experienced professionals to ensure accurate and reliable test results. Patients opting for this test at DNA Labs UAE can expect a seamless experience, from sample collection to the delivery of results, all conducted with the highest standards of care and confidentiality.

Test Details:

The GAD-65 (glutamic acid decarboxylase-65) IgG test is a blood test used to measure the levels of antibodies against the GAD-65 enzyme in the body. GAD-65 is an enzyme involved in the production of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain. This test is primarily used in the diagnosis of autoimmune conditions, particularly type 1 diabetes and certain neurological disorders such as stiff person syndrome and cerebellar ataxia. It helps to differentiate these conditions from other similar disorders.

Elevated levels of GAD-65 antibodies indicate an autoimmune response targeting GAD-65, suggesting the presence of an autoimmune disorder. However, it is important to note that the presence of these antibodies does not necessarily mean a person has an autoimmune disease, as low levels of antibodies can also be found in healthy individuals.

The GAD-65 IgG test is typically ordered when a person presents with symptoms that suggest an autoimmune or neurological disorder. It may be used in conjunction with other tests and clinical evaluations to help confirm a diagnosis.

It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper interpretation of the test results and to discuss any concerns or symptoms you may be experiencing.
