Detail Description

APOE Gene Alzheimer disease type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test cost INR:20000 symptoms diagnosis

Alzheimer's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. It is a progressive condition that affects memory, thinking, and behavior. The APOE gene has been identified as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. A DNA test can determine if a person carries the APOE gene variant associated with Alzheimer's disease type 2. DNA Labs India offers a Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) Genetic DNA Test that costs INR 20,000 for the detection of this gene.

Symptoms of Alzheimer's disease

The symptoms of Alzheimer's disease usually start gradually and get worse over time. The most common symptom is memory loss, but other symptoms include:

• Difficulty completing familiar tasks
• Misplacing things
• Changes in mood and personality
• Trouble communicating
• Loss of motivation
• Difficulty with spatial awareness and reasoning

Diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease

Diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease involves a medical evaluation, cognitive tests, and brain imaging. The diagnosis can be confirmed through an autopsy after death. A DNA test can detect the APOE gene variant associated with Alzheimer's disease type 2. This can help in early diagnosis and better management of the disease.

NGS Genetic DNA Test for APOE gene variant

The NGS Genetic DNA Test offered by DNA Labs India can detect the APOE gene variant associated with Alzheimer's disease type 2. This test is done using a blood sample or saliva. The cost of this test is INR 20,000.

The test results can help in early diagnosis and better management of the disease. It can also help in identifying individuals who are at a higher risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and taking preventive measures.

Conclusion

The APOE gene variant is a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease type 2. The NGS Genetic DNA Test offered by DNA Labs India can detect this gene variant. Early diagnosis and better management of the disease can improve the quality of life of individuals affected by Alzheimer's disease. The cost of the test is INR 20,000, and the test can be done using a blood sample or saliva.
