HADH Gene 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Genetic Test
Are you concerned about the possibility of having 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency? DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive genetic test specifically designed to detect this rare genetic disorder. Our HADH Gene 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Genetic Test is a reliable and accurate method to diagnose this condition.
Test Details
The HADH gene is responsible for producing an enzyme called 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase, which plays a crucial role in fatty acid metabolism. Deficiency in this enzyme can lead to a rare genetic disorder known as 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (HADH deficiency).
HADH deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the condition. This disorder affects the body’s ability to break down certain fatty acids, leading to a buildup of toxic byproducts in the blood and tissues.
Symptoms of HADH deficiency can vary widely but often include hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), lethargy, muscle weakness, developmental delays, and seizures. In severe cases, it can also cause life-threatening episodes of metabolic crisis.
Test Components and Price
Our HADH Gene 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test can be conducted using blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card as a sample.
Report Delivery and Test Method
The report for the HADH Gene 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Genetic Test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test is conducted using NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology, which is a highly advanced method for analyzing an individual’s DNA and identifying specific genetic variations or mutations.
Test Type and Doctor
The HADH Gene 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Genetic Test falls under the category of Metabolic Disorders. Our team of experienced General Physicians specializes in conducting this genetic test.
Test Department and Pre-Test Information
The HADH Gene 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department. Before undergoing the test, it is essential to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.
Advantages of NGS Genetic Testing
NGS genetic testing is an advanced method that allows us to identify mutations in the HADH gene that may be causing the disorder. By detecting these genetic variations, NGS testing can help confirm a diagnosis of HADH deficiency and provide valuable information for genetic counseling, family planning, and potential treatment options.
In addition, early detection and intervention made possible through NGS testing may improve outcomes for individuals affected by this disorder.
Don’t let the uncertainty of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency affect you. Get the HADH Gene 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Genetic Test at DNA Labs UAE today and take control of your health.
