The NPHP4 Gene Nephronophthisis Type 4 Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure offered by DNA Labs UAE, aimed at identifying mutations in the NPHP4 gene, which are implicated in the development of Nephronophthisis Type 4. Nephronophthisis is a genetic disorder characterized by the inflammation and scarring of the kidneys, leading to chronic kidney disease and potentially kidney failure. This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene, one from each parent, to be affected.

The test is crucial for early detection and management of the condition, allowing for targeted treatment strategies and improved patient outcomes. It involves collecting a DNA sample, typically through a blood draw or cheek swab, which is then analyzed in the laboratory for the presence of mutations in the NPHP4 gene.

At DNA Labs UAE, the cost of the NPHP4 Gene Nephronophthisis Type 4 Genetic Test is set at 4400 AED. The pricing reflects the comprehensive nature of the test, which includes not only the genetic analysis but also post-test counseling to help patients and families understand the results and their implications. This service is particularly valuable for individuals with a family history of Nephronophthisis or related symptoms, providing them with critical information for making informed decisions about their health and future.

NPHP4 Gene Nephronophthisis type 4 Genetic Test

Are you concerned about nephronophthisis type 4? DNA Labs UAE offers the NPHP4 Gene Nephronophthisis type 4 Genetic Test to provide accurate diagnosis and valuable information about this genetic disorder.

Test Details

The NPHP4 gene is associated with nephronophthisis type 4 (NPHP4), a rare genetic kidney disorder that causes progressive degeneration of the kidneys. This disorder usually manifests in childhood or adolescence and can lead to end-stage renal disease.

Our NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. With NGS genetic testing, we can identify any mutations or variations in the NPHP4 gene that may be responsible for the development of nephronophthisis type 4. This test helps in confirming a suspected diagnosis, providing information about disease progression and prognosis, and informing treatment decisions.

Pre Test Information

Prior to the NPHP4 Gene Nephronophthisis type 4 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with the NPHP4 gene. This information is crucial for accurate diagnosis and genetic counseling.

Importance of NGS Genetic Testing

NGS genetic testing not only helps in diagnosing nephronophthisis type 4, but also in identifying carriers of the NPHP4 gene mutation. This information is vital for family planning and genetic counseling.

It is important to note that NGS genetic testing for NPHP4 should be performed by specialized genetic testing laboratories and ordered and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals, such as geneticists or genetic counselors.

Test Details

The NPHP4 gene is associated with a genetic disorder called nephronophthisis type 4 (NPHP4). Nephronophthisis is a rare genetic kidney disorder characterized by the progressive degeneration of the kidneys. It typically presents in childhood or adolescence and can lead to end-stage renal disease.

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. In the context of NPHP4, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify any mutations or variations in the NPHP4 gene that may be responsible for the development of nephronophthisis type 4.

NGS genetic testing can help in the diagnosis of nephronophthisis type 4 by identifying specific genetic changes in the NPHP4 gene. This can be useful for confirming a suspected diagnosis, providing information about disease progression and prognosis, and informing treatment decisions. Additionally, NGS testing can also help in identifying carriers of the NPHP4 gene mutation, which can be important for family planning and genetic counseling.

It’s important to note that NGS genetic testing for NPHP4 is typically performed by specialized genetic testing laboratories and should be ordered and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional, such as a geneticist or genetic counselor.
