VLDLR Gene Cerebellar Hypoplasia and Mental Retardation Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the VLDLR Gene Cerebellar Hypoplasia and Mental Retardation Genetic Test. This test is designed to diagnose a rare genetic disorder known as cerebellar hypoplasia and mental retardation with or without quadrupedal locomotion type 1 (CHML).
Test Details
The VLDLR gene is associated with CHML, a disorder characterized by underdevelopment of the cerebellum and intellectual disability. Individuals with CHML may exhibit unusual movements, such as crawling on all fours like a quadruped. The disorder is caused by mutations in the VLDLR gene, which is crucial for brain development and function.
Test Components
- 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
Prior to the VLDLR Gene Cerebellar Hypoplasia and Mental Retardation Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by CHML.
Benefits of the Test
NGS genetic testing can identify mutations in the VLDLR gene, allowing for the diagnosis of CHML. This information can be used to confirm the diagnosis, guide treatment decisions, and provide insights into the risk of passing the disorder on to future generations.
If you suspect that you or a loved one may have CHML, our VLDLR Gene Cerebellar Hypoplasia and Mental Retardation Genetic Test can provide the answers you need. Contact DNA Labs UAE today to schedule an appointment.

| Test Details |
The VLDLR gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder known as cerebellar hypoplasia and mental retardation with or without quadrupedal locomotion type 1 (CHML). This disorder is characterized by underdevelopment of the cerebellum, the part of the brain that controls movement and coordination, and intellectual disability. Individuals with CHML may also exhibit unusual movements, such as crawling on all fours like a quadruped. The disorder is caused by mutations in the VLDLR gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that is important for brain development and function. NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the VLDLR gene, which can help diagnose CHML. This type of testing involves sequencing the DNA of the patient to look for changes or variations in the genetic code. Once a mutation is identified, it can be used to confirm a diagnosis, inform treatment decisions, and provide information about the risk of passing the disorder on to future generations. |
