The NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis Type 1 Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure offered at DNA Labs UAE, aimed at detecting mutations in the NF1 gene, which is responsible for neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). NF1 is a genetic disorder characterized by the growth of noncancerous tumors along the nerves in the skin, brain, and other parts of the body. It is an autosomal dominant disorder, meaning a mutation in just one of the two copies of the gene in each cell is sufficient to cause the condition.

This genetic test involves analyzing the patient’s DNA to identify mutations in the NF1 gene that are known to cause the disorder. The process helps in confirming a diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1, which can be crucial for early intervention and management of the condition. It also aids in genetic counseling for families, providing them with information on the risk of passing the disorder to future generations.

The cost of the NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis Type 1 Genetic Test at DNA Labs UAE is 4400 AED. The test is conducted in a state-of-the-art facility by experienced geneticists and laboratory technicians, ensuring high accuracy and reliability of the results. Patients opting for this test at DNA Labs UAE can expect professional service, confidentiality, and comprehensive support throughout the testing process.

Description

NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis type 1 Genetic Test

Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis type 1 Genetic Test. This test is designed to help diagnose and understand neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a genetic disorder that affects the nervous system.

Test Details

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder that causes the formation of tumors on nerve tissue. It is caused by mutations in the NF1 gene, which produces a protein called neurofibromin. This protein plays a role in regulating cell growth and division.

Our NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis type 1 Genetic Test uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. NGS is a high-throughput genetic testing method that allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of NF1, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations or variations in the NF1 gene that may be responsible for causing the disorder.

Test Components and Price

The NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis type 1 Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA Card.

Report Delivery and Method

After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The DNA sample is sequenced using NGS technology to determine the specific sequence of the NF1 gene. This sequence is compared to a reference sequence to identify any mutations or variations.

Test Type and Doctor

The NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis type 1 Genetic Test falls under the category of cancer genetic testing. Our test is conducted under the guidance of an oncologist.

Test Department and Pre Test Information

The NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis type 1 Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department. Before undergoing the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by NF1.

Why Choose Genetic Testing for NF1?

Genetic testing for NF1 can help diagnose the disorder in individuals with clinical symptoms or a family history of the disorder. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals who have a family history of NF1 but do not show any symptoms themselves. However, it is important to note that genetic testing for NF1 should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or a genetic counselor who can provide appropriate counseling and support.

At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services. Contact us today to schedule your NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis type 1 Genetic Test.

Test Details	Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder that affects the nervous system and causes the formation of tumors on nerve tissue. It is caused by mutations in the NF1 gene, which provides instructions for producing a protein called neurofibromin. This protein is involved in regulating cell growth and division. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a high-throughput genetic testing method that allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of NF1, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the NF1 gene that may be responsible for causing the disorder. The NGS genetic test for NF1 involves obtaining a DNA sample, typically through a blood sample or a cheek swab. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to determine the specific sequence of the NF1 gene. This sequence is compared to a reference sequence to identify any mutations or variations. The results of the NGS genetic test can help diagnose NF1 in individuals with clinical symptoms or a family history of the disorder. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals who have a family history of NF1 but do not show any symptoms themselves. It is important to note that genetic testing for NF1 should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or a genetic counselor who can provide appropriate counseling and support.
