The Ganglioside GM-1 Antibodies IgG and IgM Test is a specialized diagnostic assessment performed to detect the presence of antibodies against ganglioside GM-1 in the blood. Gangliosides are complex glycosphingolipids present in the cell membranes, and GM-1 plays a crucial role in neuronal function. The presence of IgG and IgM antibodies against GM-1 can be associated with various neurological disorders, including Guillain-Barré syndrome, multifocal motor neuropathy, and some forms of neuropathies.

This test is pivotal for the diagnosis and management of patients presenting with symptoms suggestive of autoimmune neuropathies. By measuring the levels of these specific antibodies, healthcare providers can gain valuable insights into the underlying causes of neurological symptoms, aiding in the formulation of an appropriate treatment plan.

Performed at DNA Labs UAE, a leading diagnostic facility known for its advanced testing capabilities and adherence to high-quality standards, the Ganglioside GM-1 Antibodies IgG and IgM Test ensures reliability and accuracy. The test cost is set at 3300 AED, reflecting the sophisticated nature of the assay and the specialized expertise required to interpret the results.

Patients undergoing this test can expect a straightforward blood draw, with results typically available within a specified timeframe post-collection. The outcome of this test, especially when combined with clinical evaluation and other diagnostic assessments, can significantly influence the therapeutic direction, potentially leading to improved patient outcomes in managing complex neurological conditions.

GANGLIOSIDE GM-1 ANTIBODIES IgG and IgM Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the GANGLIOSIDE GM-1 ANTIBODIES IgG and IgM Test to help diagnose and monitor autoimmune disorders affecting the nervous system. This blood test measures the levels of IgG and IgM antibodies against ganglioside GM-1, which are glycosphingolipids found on the surface of nerve cells.

Test Details

The GANGLIOSIDE GM-1 ANTIBODIES IgG & IgM test is used to detect the presence of antibodies against ganglioside GM-1 in the blood. Elevated levels of IgG and/or IgM antibodies may indicate an autoimmune response targeting the peripheral nerves. However, it is important to note that a positive result does not confirm a specific diagnosis and further evaluation is usually required.

Symptoms and Diagnosis

This test is particularly useful in diagnosing and monitoring autoimmune disorders such as Guillain-Barr syndrome and other peripheral neuropathies. Common symptoms of these disorders include muscle weakness, numbness, tingling, and difficulty with coordination. If you are experiencing these symptoms, it is recommended to consult a neurologist for further evaluation.

Test Cost

The cost of the GANGLIOSIDE GM-1 ANTIBODIES IgG and IgM Test is AED 3300.0.

Sample Condition

A minimum of 2 mL of serum from 1 SST is required for the test. The sample should be shipped refrigerated or frozen. Overnight fasting is preferred. Additionally, a duly filled Test Send Out Consent Form is mandatory.

Report Delivery

The sample should be sent by the 7th of the month, and the report will be delivered after 2-3 weeks.

Method

The GANGLIOSIDE GM-1 ANTIBODIES IgG and IgM Test is performed using an immunoassay method.

Doctor and Test Department

This test is usually ordered by a neurologist and falls under the Disorders of Nervous System category. The test department responsible for conducting this test is OS.

Pre Test Information

It is recommended to fast overnight before taking the test. Additionally, a duly filled Test Send Out Consent Form is mandatory.

Interpretation of Results

The results of the GANGLIOSIDE GM-1 ANTIBODIES IgG and IgM Test are reported as a numerical value indicating the level of antibodies present in the blood. A healthcare provider, usually a neurologist, will interpret the results based on the individual’s symptoms and medical history to determine their significance.
