Detail Description

APOB Gene Hypercholesterolemia type B Autosomal Dominant NGS Genetic DNA Test

Hypercholesterolemia is a condition in which there is an excessive amount of cholesterol in the blood. The APOB gene is responsible for the production of a protein that helps transport cholesterol in the blood. Mutations in this gene can lead to a condition called hypercholesterolemia type B, which is an autosomal dominant disorder.

Symptoms

Hypercholesterolemia type B is often asymptomatic, meaning that there may not be any noticeable symptoms. However, if left untreated, it can lead to the development of atherosclerosis, which can cause a range of symptoms such as:

• Chest pain
• Shortness of breath
• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Nausea
• Stroke

Diagnosis

Hypercholesterolemia type B can be diagnosed through a blood test that measures the levels of cholesterol in the blood. In addition, genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the APOB gene.

NGS Genetic DNA Test

The NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) genetic DNA test is a cutting-edge technology that can be used to identify mutations in the APOB gene. This test can detect multiple mutations in the gene, which can help to provide a more accurate diagnosis of hypercholesterolemia type B. The cost of this test in India is INR 20,000.

Conclusion

Hypercholesterolemia type B is a serious condition that can lead to a range of health problems if left untreated. The NGS genetic DNA test is a powerful tool that can be used to accurately diagnose this condition, and it is available at DNA Labs India for INR 20,000. If you suspect that you or a loved one may have hypercholesterolemia type B, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
