CR2 Gene Immunodeficiency - Symptoms, Diagnosis and NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost

CR2 gene immunodeficiency, also known as common variable type 7, is a rare genetic disorder that affects the immune system. It is caused by mutations in the CR2 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein called complement receptor 2.

Complement receptor 2 plays an important role in the immune system by helping to identify and destroy foreign invaders, such as bacteria and viruses. When the CR2 gene is mutated, the immune system is unable to function properly, leaving the body vulnerable to infections.

Symptoms of CR2 Gene Immunodeficiency

The symptoms of CR2 gene immunodeficiency can vary from person to person, but may include:

• Recurrent infections, particularly of the respiratory tract, ears, and sinuses
• Chronic diarrhea
• Autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus
• Enlarged spleen or liver
• Low levels of immunoglobulins in the blood

Diagnosis of CR2 Gene Immunodeficiency

Diagnosing CR2 gene immunodeficiency can be challenging because it is a rare disorder and the symptoms can be similar to other conditions. However, genetic testing can confirm the presence of a CR2 gene mutation.

At DNA Labs India, we offer NGS genetic DNA testing for CR2 gene immunodeficiency. This test uses next-generation sequencing technology to analyze the DNA sample and detect any mutations in the CR2 gene. The cost of this test is INR 20,000.

If you or a loved one is experiencing symptoms of CR2 gene immunodeficiency, it is important to get tested as soon as possible. At DNA Labs India, our team of experienced geneticists and counselors can help you understand your test results and provide guidance on treatment options. Contact us today to book an appointment.

Mutations in the CR2 gene have been associated with immunodeficiency, common variable, 7 (CVID7), which is a rare type of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID). CVID is a heterogeneous group of primary immunodeficiency disorders characterized by impaired antibody production, leading to recurrent infections, particularly of the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems.
