The “SCA-1 Spinocerebellar Ataxia ATXN1 Gene Mutation Test” is a specialized genetic test offered by DNA Labs UAE, designed to identify mutations in the ATXN1 gene, which are linked to Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 1 (SCA-1). SCA-1 is a rare, inherited neurological disorder characterized by progressive loss of coordination, difficulty walking, and speech problems, among other symptoms. This condition is caused by a specific genetic mutation in the ATXN1 gene, which affects the brain’s cerebellum and spinal cord.

The test is crucial for individuals with a family history of SCA-1 or those exhibiting symptoms, as it can provide definitive diagnosis and help in managing the condition. Early detection through this genetic testing can also inform family planning decisions for those carrying the mutation. The procedure involves collecting a DNA sample, typically through a blood draw or cheek swab, which is then analyzed for the presence of the ATXN1 mutation.

At DNA Labs UAE, the cost of the SCA-1 Spinocerebellar Ataxia ATXN1 Gene Mutation Test is 590 AED. The test is conducted in a state-of-the-art laboratory by skilled professionals, ensuring accurate and reliable results. Individuals seeking this test can expect a thorough and confidential service, with support and guidance provided throughout the testing process.

Test Details

The SCA-1 (Spinocerebellar Ataxia) test is a genetic test that detects mutations in the ATXN1 gene. Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects the coordination and balance of movement. It is caused by a mutation in the ATXN1 gene, which leads to the production of an abnormal protein that accumulates in the cells of the cerebellum.

The SCA-1 test involves analyzing a blood or saliva sample to identify any mutations in the ATXN1 gene. This test can help diagnose individuals with spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 and determine if they carry the mutated gene. Early detection of the ATXN1 gene mutation can aid in providing appropriate medical management and genetic counseling for affected individuals and their families. It can also assist in understanding the inheritance pattern of the disease and predicting the likelihood of passing the mutation to future generations.

It is important to note that the SCA-1 test is a specialized genetic test that should be ordered and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional, such as a geneticist or a neurologist.
