MC4R Gene Obesity Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the MC4R Gene Obesity Genetic Test to help individuals understand their genetic predisposition to obesity. This test analyzes the MC4R gene using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to identify any mutations or variations that may be associated with obesity.
Test Components and Price
The MC4R Gene Obesity Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test can be performed using a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
After the test is conducted, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method and Test Type
The MC4R Gene Obesity Genetic Test utilizes NGS technology to analyze the MC4R gene. This test falls under the category of Hepatology, Nephrology, and Endocrinology Disorders.
Referring Doctor and Test Department
The test can be referred by a General Physician and is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the MC4R Gene Obesity Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the MC4R gene.
Test Details
The MC4R gene plays a crucial role in regulating appetite and metabolism. Mutations in this gene have been linked to a predisposition to obesity. Our MC4R Gene Obesity NGS Genetic Test uses NGS technology to analyze the MC4R gene for any mutations or variations associated with obesity.
This test can help identify individuals who may have a genetic predisposition to obesity, enabling early intervention and personalized treatment options. By analyzing multiple genes simultaneously, our NGS technology provides a comprehensive assessment of an individual’s genetic risk for obesity.
It is important to note that genetic tests alone cannot determine the development of obesity. Obesity is a complex condition influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Therefore, our genetic testing should be used alongside other clinical assessments and lifestyle interventions to effectively manage and prevent obesity.

| Test Details | The MC4R gene is involved in regulating appetite and metabolism. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a predisposition to obesity. The MC4R gene obesity NGS genetic test is a genetic test that uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the MC4R gene for any mutations or variations that may be associated with obesity. This test can help identify individuals who may have a genetic predisposition to obesity, allowing for early intervention and personalized treatment options. The NGS technology used in this test allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously, providing a comprehensive assessment of an individual’s genetic risk for obesity. This can be particularly useful in cases where obesity is not easily explained by lifestyle factors alone. It is important to note that while genetic tests can provide valuable information about an individual’s genetic risk for obesity, they do not determine the development of obesity on their own. Obesity is a complex condition that is influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Therefore, genetic testing should be used in conjunction with other clinical assessments and lifestyle interventions to effectively manage and prevent obesity. |
