SLC5A2 Gene Renal glucosuria Genetic Test
Are you experiencing symptoms of renal glucosuria? DNA Labs UAE offers the SLC5A2 Gene Renal glucosuria Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0. This test can help diagnose and provide insights into this condition.
Test Details
The SLC5A2 gene is responsible for encoding a protein called sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2), which is primarily expressed in the kidneys. This protein plays a crucial role in reabsorbing glucose from the urine back into the bloodstream.
Renal glucosuria is a condition characterized by the presence of glucose in the urine despite normal blood glucose levels. It occurs when there is a defect in the SGLT2 protein, leading to impaired reabsorption of glucose from the urine.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a cutting-edge method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, aiming to identify genetic variations or mutations. In the case of renal glucosuria, NGS genetic testing can be used to detect mutations in the SLC5A2 gene that may be responsible for the condition.
By identifying specific genetic variations or mutations in the SLC5A2 gene, NGS genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of renal glucosuria and provide information about the underlying genetic cause. This information can be useful in understanding the inheritance pattern of the condition and may help in making treatment decisions or providing genetic counseling.
Test Components and Price
The SLC5A2 Gene Renal glucosuria Genetic Test is available at a cost of AED 4400.0. The test requires a blood sample or extracted DNA, or just one drop of blood on an FTA Card.
Report Delivery and Method
After the test is conducted, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test utilizes NGS technology to analyze the SLC5A2 gene.
Test Type and Doctor
The SLC5A2 Gene Renal glucosuria Genetic Test falls under the categories of Hepatology, Nephrology, and Endocrinology Disorders. It is recommended to consult with a General Physician who specializes in genetics for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
The SLC5A2 Gene Renal glucosuria Genetic Test is conducted in the Genetics department. Before the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is undergoing the test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the SLC5A2 Gene Renal glucosuria NGS Genetic DNA Test gene SLC5A2.
Don’t let the symptoms of renal glucosuria go undiagnosed. Visit DNA Labs UAE for the SLC5A2 Gene Renal glucosuria Genetic Test and get the answers you need for proper treatment and genetic counseling.
