Test Overview
The SLC7A7 gene encodes an amino acid transporter critical for dibasic amino acid absorption. This next-generation sequencing (NGS) test detects pathogenic variants causing Lysinuric Protein Intolerance (LPI)—a rare metabolic disorder affecting the liver, kidneys, and endocrine system. يكشف هذا التحليل الطفرات المسببة لعدم تحمل البروتين الليسيني بدقة. Early diagnosis enables tailored dietary management and prevents irreversible organ damage.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“Lysinuric protein intolerance can mimic common gastrointestinal or renal disorders. A positive genetic result must be interpreted alongside plasma amino acids and urinary orotic acid, under the guidance of a metabolic specialist. Do not delay dietary modifications—clinical correlation with a nephrologist or hepatologist is paramount.” — Dr. Prabhakar Reddy, DHA License: 61713011
⚠ Medication Warning: Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & ER Red Flags
- Exclusion: Active severe infection or acute metabolic decompensation (delay test until stable).
- Exclusion: Inability to provide adequate DNA sample (severe leukopenia).
- Red Flag: Sudden onset of hyperammonemic crisis (confusion, vomiting, lethargy) — seek emergency care immediately.
- Red Flag: Signs of acute liver failure (jaundice, coagulopathy).
- Red Flag: Severe protein aversion leading to malnutrition.
If you experience any of these, contact your physician or call emergency services before repeat testing.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the clinical value of SLC7A7 NGS testing for suspected LPI?
SLC7A7 NGS testing identifies disease-causing mutations in the SLC7A7 gene to guide dietary, medical management and timely interventions. It provides a definitive molecular diagnosis, differentiating LPI from other aminoacidurias or mitochondrial hepatopathies. The test covers all exons and exon-intron boundaries, detecting point mutations, small indels, and copy number variations, enabling personalized prognosis and family screening.
2. How should I prepare for this genetic?
A mandatory comprehensive clinical history and pedigree charting by a certified genetic counselor before blood collection ensures accurate interpretation. No fasting is required. Provide details of any previous metabolic investigations, amino acid profiles, or imaging. Sample collection via home phlebotomy uses a single EDTA tube or FTA card.
3. كم تستغرق نتيجة التحليل، وهل يمكن استخدامها في تقارير التأمين؟
تستغرق نتيجة التحليل من 3 إلى 4 أسابيع، ويقدم التقرير الطبي باللغتين الإنجليزية والعربية ليدعم مطالبات التأمين مباشرة.
