GFRA1 Gene Central Hypoventilation Syndrome Congenital Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the GFRA1 Gene Central Hypoventilation Syndrome Congenital Genetic Test for individuals suspected of having Central Hypoventilation Syndrome, Congenital (CHSC). CHSC, also known as Hirschsprung disease type 2, is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal control of breathing, particularly during sleep.
Test Components: The GFRA1 Gene Central Hypoventilation Syndrome Congenital Genetic Test includes the following components:
- Price: 4400.0 AED
- Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
- Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
- Method: NGS Technology
- Test Type: Dysmorphology
- Doctor: Pediatrics
- Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information: Before undergoing the GFRA1 Gene Central Hypoventilation Syndrome Congenital Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is being tested. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by CHSC and to discuss the implications of the test results.
Test Details: The GFRA1 gene is associated with CHSC. NGS genetic testing, which utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing technology, can analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of CHSC, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations or variants in the GFRA1 gene that may be responsible for the condition. This comprehensive analysis provides more detailed information compared to traditional sequencing methods.
NGS genetic testing for CHSC can help confirm a diagnosis, guide treatment decisions, and provide information about the inheritance pattern of the condition. It is also valuable for genetic counseling and family planning purposes.
It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals, such as geneticists or genetic counselors, who can offer appropriate guidance and support.

Test Details |
The GFRA1 gene is associated with a condition called Central Hypoventilation Syndrome, Congenital (CHSC), also known as Hirschsprung disease type 2. CHSC is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal control of breathing, particularly during sleep. Individuals with CHSC may have difficulty sensing low oxygen levels and high carbon dioxide levels, leading to inadequate breathing. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that can analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of CHSC, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variants in the GFRA1 gene that may be responsible for the condition. This type of testing can provide a more comprehensive analysis of genetic changes compared to traditional sequencing methods. NGS genetic testing for CHSC can help confirm a diagnosis, guide treatment decisions, and provide information about the inheritance pattern of the condition. It can also be useful for genetic counseling and family planning purposes. It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals, such as geneticists or genetic counselors, who can provide appropriate guidance and support. |
