The SERPINF1 gene plays a critical role in bone formation and mineralization, and mutations in this gene are associated with Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 6 (OI Type 6), a rare form of the disorder characterized by increased bone fragility, low bone mass, and susceptibility to fractures. OI Type 6 is distinguished from other types of Osteogenesis Imperfecta by its specific radiological findings and the absence of blue sclera.

The genetic test for OI Type 6 involves analyzing the SERPINF1 gene to identify mutations that cause the condition. This test is crucial for confirming the diagnosis, understanding the disease’s genetic basis, and guiding treatment and management decisions. It can also provide valuable information for family planning and genetic counseling for affected families.

In the United Arab Emirates, DNA Labs UAE offers this specialized genetic test. The cost of the SERPINF1 gene test for Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 6 is 4400 AED. Conducted in a state-of-the-art facility, the test is performed by experienced geneticists and laboratory technicians who ensure accurate and reliable results. DNA Labs UAE provides comprehensive support throughout the testing process, including pre-test counseling, sample collection guidance, and post-test interpretation and counseling to help individuals and families understand the results and their implications.

SERPINF1 Gene Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 6 Genetic Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the SERPINF1 Gene Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 6 Genetic Test to help diagnose and manage this rare genetic disorder. Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 6 (OI Type 6) is characterized by brittle bones that are prone to fractures. It is caused by mutations in the SERPINF1 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein called pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF). This protein plays a role in bone formation and mineralization.

Test Details

Our SERPINF1 Gene Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 6 Genetic Test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the SERPINF1 gene and identify any mutations or variations that may be present. NGS genetic testing involves sequencing the entire gene to detect any changes in the DNA sequence that could be responsible for the development of OI Type 6.

Pre Test Information

Prior to undergoing the SERPINF1 Gene Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 6 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 SERPINF1 Gene and OI Type 6.

Benefits of Genetic Testing

NGS genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of OI Type 6 and provide important information for genetic counseling and management of the condition. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of OI Type 6 and for prenatal testing in families at risk of having a child with the condition.

Important Considerations

It is crucial to have genetic testing performed and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor. They can provide guidance and support in understanding the results and implications for individuals and their families.
