SHANK2 Gene Autism susceptibility X-linked type 17 Genetic Test
Components: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
Price: 4400.0 AED
Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
Method: NGS Technology
Test Type: Neurological Disorders
Doctor: Neurologist
Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for SHANK2 Gene Autism susceptibility, X-linked type 17 NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with SHANK2 Gene Autism susceptibility, X-linked type 17.
Test Details: The SHANK2 gene is located on the X chromosome and is involved in the development and function of synapses in the brain. Mutations in this gene have been linked to an increased risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other neurodevelopmental disorders. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of DNA sequencing technology that can analyze multiple genes simultaneously. This type of testing can identify mutations in the SHANK2 gene and other genes associated with ASD and related conditions. The X-linked type 17 refers to the mode of inheritance of the SHANK2 gene mutation, which is inherited on the X chromosome. This means that the mutation is more common in males, who only have one X chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes and may carry a normal copy of the gene on their other X chromosome. NGS genetic testing for SHANK2 mutations may be recommended for individuals with a family history of ASD or other neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as those with symptoms suggestive of these conditions. The results of genetic testing can help with diagnosis, treatment, and genetic counseling for affected individuals and their families.
