OXTR Gene Autism OXTR related Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the OXTR Gene Autism OXTR related Genetic Test for individuals and families affected by autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This test can help identify potential genetic variations associated with ASD.
Test Components and Price
The OXTR Gene Autism OXTR related Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood sample or extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method and Test Type
The OXTR Gene Autism OXTR related Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology to analyze the DNA and identify any mutations or variations in the OXTR gene. This test falls under the category of neurological disorders.
Test Department and Doctor
The OXTR Gene Autism OXTR related Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department, under the supervision of a Neurologist.
Pre Test Information
Prior to taking the OXTR Gene Autism OXTR related Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by OXTR Gene Autism, OXTR related.
Test Details
The OXTR gene, also known as the oxytocin receptor gene, has been linked to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in several studies. Oxytocin, a hormone involved in social behavior, bonding, and empathy, is regulated by the OXTR gene in the brain.
NGS genetic testing for the OXTR gene analyzes a person’s DNA using next-generation sequencing technology. This test helps identify potential genetic variations associated with ASD. However, it is important to note that genetic testing alone cannot diagnose ASD, as the disorder is complex and influenced by genetic and environmental factors.
Genetic testing can provide valuable information for individuals and families affected by ASD, but it should always be used in conjunction with clinical evaluation and other diagnostic tools.

This type of testing uses next-generation sequencing technology to analyze a person’s DNA and identify any mutations or variations in the OXTR gene. However, it’s important to note that genetic testing alone cannot diagnose ASD, as the disorder is complex and involves a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Genetic testing can provide valuable information for individuals and families affected by ASD, but it should always be used in conjunction with clinical evaluation and other diagnostic tools. |
