About LRRC6 Gene Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Type 19
The LRRC6 gene is associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia type 19 (PCD19), a genetic disorder that affects the functioning of cilia. Cilia are tiny hair-like structures found on the surface of cells, particularly in the respiratory tract, reproductive organs, and the brain.
PCD19 is characterized by the following symptoms:
- Chronic respiratory tract infections, such as bronchiectasis and sinusitis
- Infertility in males due to impaired sperm motility
- Chronic ear infections
- Hearing loss
- Situs inversus (where the internal organs are mirrored from their normal positions)
NGS Genetic Testing
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze a person’s DNA to identify mutations or variations in specific genes associated with a particular disorder. In the case of PCD19, NGS genetic testing can be used to detect mutations in the LRRC6 gene, helping to confirm a diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia type 19.
It is important to note that genetic testing should be conducted by a healthcare professional who specializes in genetics, and the results should be interpreted in the context of a person’s overall clinical presentation and family history. Genetic counseling may also be recommended to discuss the implications and potential risks associated with the test results.
