Detail Description

ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test

ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1 is a rare liver disorder that occurs in pregnant women. It is caused by a mutation in the ATP8B1 gene. This gene provides instructions for making a protein that is involved in the transport of bile acids from the liver to the gallbladder and small intestine. When the ATP8B1 gene is mutated, bile acids accumulate in the liver, leading to cholestasis.

At DNA Labs India, we offer NGS Genetic DNA Test for ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1. This test uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the DNA sequence of the ATP8B1 gene and identify any mutations. The test is highly accurate and can detect even rare mutations.

The cost of the NGS Genetic DNA Test for ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1 at DNA Labs India is INR 20,000.

Symptoms of ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1

• Itching
• Jaundice
• Dark urine
• Pale stools
• Abdominal pain
• Nausea and vomiting

Diagnosis of ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1

The diagnosis of ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1 is based on a combination of symptoms, blood tests, and genetic testing. Blood tests may show elevated levels of liver enzymes and bilirubin. Genetic testing can confirm the presence of a mutation in the ATP8B1 gene.

Conclusion

ATP8B1 Gene Cholestasis, intrahepatic, of pregnancy, type 1 is a rare liver disorder that can cause serious complications during pregnancy. Early diagnosis is important for the management of the condition.
