STIL Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 7 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the STIL Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 7 Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0. This test is used to diagnose and identify the specific genetic mutation responsible for the rare genetic disorder known as Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 7 (MCPH7).
Test Details
Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 7 (MCPH7) is characterized by a small head size (microcephaly) and intellectual disability. It is caused by mutations in the STIL gene. Our NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) Genetic Testing utilizes advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, including the STIL gene.
The test requires a DNA sample, which can be obtained through a blood sample or a cheek swab. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any mutations or variations in the STIL gene. The results of the test can confirm a diagnosis of MCPH7 and provide information about the specific genetic mutation involved.
Benefits of NGS Genetic Testing for MCPH7
NGS Genetic Testing for MCPH7 is beneficial for individuals who exhibit symptoms of the disorder or have a family history of the condition. It can provide an accurate diagnosis, guide appropriate medical management, and offer information for genetic counseling and family planning.
Pre-Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who will undergo the STIL Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 7 NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by MCPH7.
Test Components and Report Delivery
The STIL Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 7 Genetic Test is priced at AED 4400.0. The sample condition required for the test includes blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA Card. The report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Department and Doctor
The STIL Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 7 Genetic Test falls under the Genetics department. The test is typically recommended by pediatricians specializing in genetic disorders.
Important Considerations
It is important to note that NGS Genetic Testing may not be available in all healthcare settings and may require a referral to a specialized genetics laboratory. Additionally, the cost and insurance coverage for genetic testing can vary. Therefore, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor to understand the options and potential implications of the test.

Gene Microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 7 (MCPH7) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a small head size (microcephaly) and intellectual disability. It is caused by mutations in the STIL gene. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) Genetic Testing is a type of genetic test that uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of MCPH7, NGS Genetic Testing can be used to identify mutations in the STIL gene that are responsible for the disorder. The test involves obtaining a DNA sample, typically through a blood sample or a cheek swab. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any mutations or variations in the STIL gene. The results of the test can help confirm a diagnosis of MCPH7 and provide information about the specific genetic mutation involved. NGS Genetic Testing for MCPH7 can be beneficial for individuals who have symptoms suggestive of the disorder or have a family history of the condition. It can help in providing an accurate diagnosis, guiding appropriate medical management, and providing information for genetic counseling and family planning. It is important to note that NGS Genetic Testing may not be available in all healthcare settings and may require a referral to a specialized genetics laboratory. Additionally, the cost and insurance coverage for genetic testing can vary, so it is important to consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor to understand the options and potential implications of the test. |
