The “LORICRIN Gene Vohwinkel Syndrome with Ichthyosis Genetic Test” is a specialized diagnostic procedure available at DNA Labs UAE, designed to identify mutations in the LORICRIN gene. This gene is crucial for the proper development and function of the skin. Mutations in the LORICRIN gene are associated with Vohwinkel Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by constricting bands around fingers and toes (pseudoainhum), hearing loss, and ichthyosis, which is a condition leading to dry, thickened, and scaly skin.

The test is particularly important for individuals showing symptoms of Vohwinkel Syndrome or those with a family history of the condition, as it can provide definitive genetic evidence of the disorder. This information is vital for guiding treatment decisions, managing symptoms, and offering genetic counseling to affected families.

The procedure involves collecting a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or a cheek swab, which is then analyzed in the laboratory to detect any abnormalities in the LORICRIN gene. The cost of the test is 4400 AED, reflecting the specialized nature of the genetic analysis and the expertise required to interpret the results.

By opting for this test at DNA Labs UAE, patients and healthcare providers can access crucial genetic insights into Vohwinkel Syndrome, facilitating early intervention, personalized treatment plans, and improved quality of life for those affected by this rare condition.

Description

LORICRIN Gene Vohwinkel Syndrome with Ichthyosis Genetic Test

Test Name: LORICRIN Gene Vohwinkel Syndrome with Ichthyosis Genetic Test

Components: NGS Technology

Price: 4400.0 AED

Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card

Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks

Test Type: Osteology Dermatology Immunology Disorders

Doctor: Dermatologist

Test Department: Genetics

Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for LORICRIN Gene Vohwinkel Syndrome with Ichthyosis NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with LORICRIN Gene Vohwinkel Syndrome with Ichthyosis NGS Genetic DNA Test gene LORICRIN.

Test Details: The LORICRIN gene is responsible for providing instructions for the production of a protein called loricrin. This protein is essential for the formation of the outermost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum. Mutations in the LORICRIN gene can lead to a condition called Vohwinkel syndrome with ichthyosis. Vohwinkel syndrome with ichthyosis is a rare genetic disorder characterized by thickening of the skin (ichthyosis) and the presence of certain skin abnormalities. This condition is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, which means that an affected individual has a 50% chance of passing the mutation to their children. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a type of genetic test that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, including the LORICRIN gene. This test can help identify specific mutations in the LORICRIN gene that are responsible for Vohwinkel syndrome with ichthyosis. By performing NGS testing, healthcare professionals can accurately diagnose individuals with Vohwinkel syndrome with ichthyosis and provide appropriate management and treatment options. Additionally, this genetic test can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of the condition. It is important to note that genetic testing should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide appropriate counseling and support throughout the testing process.
