Overview
The PSAP gene test uses next‑generation sequencing (NGS) to detect disease‑causing mutations responsible for Prosaposin deficiency, a rare lysosomal storage disorder that can lead to severe neurological impairment. (يكتشف التحليل الطفرات المسبّبة لنقص بروسابوسين عبر الجيل التالي من التسلسل).

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
Note from Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY, DHA License 61713011: “A positive genetic result confirms the molecular diagnosis but must be correlated with clinical symptoms, biochemical assays, and family history. This test provides powerful information, yet it is not a standalone crystal ball. I reassure every patient that our multidisciplinary team will walk you through the meaning and next steps with compassion and precision.”
⚠️ Medication Warning
Do not discontinue or adjust any prescribed medication based on this test result without consulting your treating physician.
🛡️ Safety & Exclusion Criteria
Exclusion Criteria for Home Collection
- Patient is unable to provide informed consent or lacks a legal guardian (minors require CDS Law 2026‑compliant consent).
- Known active bleeding disorder or anticoagulant therapy (must phone‑screen with our phlebotomist).
- Severe acute illness that could compromise specimen quality; reschedule after recovery.
- Pregnancy is not a contraindication, but genetic counselling is mandatory prior to draw.
🚨 ER Red Flags (Seek Immediate Care)
- Sudden loss of consciousness or seizure‑like activity.
- Rapid neurological deterioration (inability to walk or speak).
- Difficulty breathing or swallowing after the sample collection (rare).
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Prosaposin deficiency and what does the PSAP gene test detect? / ما هو نقص بروسابوسين وماذا يكشف تحليل الجين PSAP؟
A: This NGS test identifies disease‑causing mutations in the PSAP gene responsible for Prosaposin deficiency, a severe sphingolipid storage disorder. The condition results from deficient saposin proteins and can lead to progressive neurological decline.
يحدد هذا الاختبار الطفرات المرضية في جين PSAP المسؤولة عن نقص بروسابوسين، وهو اضطراب شديد في أيض الشحوم السفينغولية.
Q: How is the performed and what sample is needed? / كيف يُجرى التحليل وما العيّنة المطلوبة؟
A: A certified phlebotomist collects a small blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop blood on an FTA card during home visit. The sample is transported in a temperature‑controlled cold chain to our accredited laboratory for NGS processing.
يجمع أخصّائي سحب الدم عيّنة دم صغيرة، أو حمضًا نوويًا مستخلصًا، أو قطرة دم على بطاقة FTA خلال زيارة منزلية معتمدة.
Q: What do the results mean and how will I receive them? / ماذا تعني النتائج وكيف سأستلمها؟
A: Results indicate presence or absence of pathogenic variants, delivered with a detailed report and optional telephonic genetic counselling support. A “positive” result may clarify a clinical diagnosis; a “negative” does not rule out all genetic forms, and clinical correlation remains essential.
تشير النتائج إلى وجود أو عدم وجود طفرات مرضية، وتُسلّم مع تقرير مفصّل وجلسة استشارة وراثية عبر الهاتف عند الطلب.
