Test Overview & Methodology
ITGA2 C807T Test: Determines your inherited genotype for the glycoprotein Ia gene, a critical regulator of platelet collagen receptor density, strongly linked to myocardial infarction and thrombotic stroke. This test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to provide the highest resolution of genetic variant detection.
| Feature | Our ITGA2 NGS Test | Closest Alternative (PCR-based) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | NGS (99.9% sensitivity) | Standard PCR (lower variant resolution) |
| Methodology | Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) | Allele-specific PCR / RFLP |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks | 2–3 Weeks (often no genetic counseling included) |
| Accreditation | ISO 9001:2015 & DHA Licensed | Variable; lacks standardized DHA genetic oversight |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
Clinical Note from Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics (DHA: 9294403): "This genetic result is a powerful piece of your overall cardiovascular health puzzle, not a standalone diagnosis. Understanding your ITGA2 status enables a personalized prevention plan, from lifestyle adjustments to guided therapy, always in partnership with your treating physician. Please consider this information alongside your full clinical history and do not make self-management decisions."
Important Medical Advisory
⚠️ Do not discontinue prescribed medication (e.g., anti-platelet therapies) without consulting your doctor. This test provides risk information, not a treatment directive.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Exclusion: Active severe bleeding or coagulation disorder that precludes safe phlebotomy.
- Exclusion: Inability to provide informed consent; minors must have legal guardian consent as per Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability.
- ER Red Flag: Sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, one-sided weakness, or slurred speech – seek emergency medical attention immediately. This test does not replace urgent care.
- Sample-specific: Patients on high-dose anticoagulants may require a physician’s clearance before blood draw.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the ITGA2 C807T polymorphism and why should I get tested?
The ITGA2 C807T polymorphism is a genetic variant that influences platelet glycoprotein Ia density, increasing thrombosis risk. This test helps assess your inherited cardiovascular risk profile, guiding proactive cardiovascular care.
2. How is the sample collected and is it painful?
A simple blood draw or a finger-prick onto an FTA card is performed by our certified phlebotomist. The procedure causes minimal discomfort and can be conducted at your home via our VIP Mobile Phlebotomy service.
3. Will my genetic data be kept confidential under UAE law?
Yes, absolutely. All genetic data is strictly protected under Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on Personal Data Protection (PDPL) and Federal Law No. 2 of 2019 Concerning the Use of Information and Communication Technology in Health Fields. Your data will not be shared with insurers or employers without your explicit consent.
4. How long does the ITGA2 genetic test take?
The turnaround time for this comprehensive Next-Generation Sequencing test is 3 to 4 weeks, ensuring thorough analysis and validation of results.
