The SLC16A2 gene Pelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease (PMD) genetic test is a specialized diagnostic tool offered by DNA Labs UAE, designed to identify mutations in the SLC16A2 gene, which are linked to the development of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease. PMD is a rare, genetic neurological disorder characterized by a progressive decline in motor abilities, coordination, and cognitive functions, resulting from the improper formation of myelin in the central nervous system. The test involves collecting a DNA sample, typically through a blood draw or cheek swab, and analyzing it for specific genetic alterations associated with the condition. With a cost of 4400 AED, this test provides crucial information for the accurate diagnosis and management of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease, enabling targeted treatment plans and genetic counseling for affected families.

SLC16A2 Gene Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease Genetic Test

Components: SLC16A2 Gene Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease Genetic Test

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 SLC16A2 Gene Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with SLC16A2 Gene Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease.

Test Details: The SLC16A2 gene is associated with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD), which is a rare genetic disorder that affects the central nervous system. PMD is characterized by abnormal myelination, the process by which nerve cells are insulated with a protective covering called myelin. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses high-throughput sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of PMD, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variants in the SLC16A2 gene that may be responsible for causing the disease. By analyzing the entire coding region of the SLC16A2 gene, NGS testing can provide comprehensive genetic information about potential disease-causing mutations or variants. This can help in confirming a diagnosis of PMD and may also be useful for genetic counseling and family planning purposes. It’s important to note that NGS testing is typically performed by specialized laboratories and should be ordered and interpreted by a healthcare professional, such as a geneticist or genetic counselor, with expertise in genetic testing and rare genetic disorders like PMD.
