PIK3R2 Gene Megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome Genetic Test
Are you looking for a genetic test for PIK3R2 Gene Megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome? DNA Labs UAE offers comprehensive genetic testing services at an affordable cost of AED 4400.0.
Test Details
The PIK3R2 gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder known as megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome (MPPH syndrome). This syndrome is characterized by an enlarged brain (megalencephaly), abnormal brain folding (polymicrogyria), extra fingers or toes (polydactyly), and accumulation of fluid in the brain (hydrocephalus).
Our genetic test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, which allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. NGS is a high-throughput method that can efficiently and cost-effectively detect genetic variations, such as mutations or deletions, compared to traditional sequencing methods.
For MPPH syndrome, our NGS genetic test specifically analyzes the PIK3R2 gene for any disease-causing mutations or variations. This test can confirm a diagnosis of MPPH syndrome and provide information about the specific genetic variant involved.

| Test Details |
The PIK3R2 gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder known as megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome (MPPH syndrome). This syndrome is characterized by several features, including an enlarged brain (megalencephaly), abnormal brain folding (polymicrogyria), extra fingers or toes (polydactyly), and accumulation of fluid in the brain (hydrocephalus). 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. It is a high-throughput method that can detect genetic variations, such as mutations or deletions, in a more efficient and cost-effective manner compared to traditional sequencing methods. In the case of MPPH syndrome, NGS genetic testing can be used to analyze the PIK3R2 gene for any disease-causing mutations or variations. This can help in confirming a diagnosis of MPPH syndrome and providing information about the specific genetic variant involved. It can also be useful for genetic counseling, as it can help determine the likelihood of passing on the condition to future generations and inform reproductive decision-making. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional or a genetic counselor to discuss the specific implications, limitations, and benefits of NGS genetic testing for MPPH syndrome or any other genetic disorder. |
