Detail Description

DDHD1 Gene SPG28 NGS Genetic DNA Test

At DNA Labs India, we offer the DDHD1 Gene SPG28 NGS Genetic DNA Test to help individuals identify whether they carry a genetic mutation that causes SPG28, a rare neurological disorder. Read on to learn more about this test, the symptoms and diagnosis of SPG28, and the cost of the test.

What is SPG28?

SPG28 is a rare neurological disorder that affects the muscles in the lower limbs, causing spasticity and weakness. It is caused by a mutation in the DDHD1 gene, which is responsible for the production of an enzyme that helps break down certain types of fats in the body.

What are the Symptoms of SPG28?

The symptoms of SPG28 can vary from person to person, but they generally include:

• Weakness in the legs
• Stiffness or spasticity in the legs
• Difficulty walking or running
• Foot deformities
• Difficulty with balance

How is SPG28 Diagnosed?

SPG28 is typically diagnosed through a combination of clinical evaluation and genetic testing. A doctor will perform a physical examination and may order imaging tests such as an MRI or CT scan to rule out other conditions. Genetic testing can confirm the presence of a DDHD1 gene mutation.

What is the DDHD1 Gene SPG28 NGS Genetic DNA Test?

The DDHD1 Gene SPG28 NGS Genetic DNA Test is a genetic test that analyzes a person's DNA to identify mutations in the DDHD1 gene that can cause SPG28. The test uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to detect even small genetic changes that may be missed by other tests.

What is the Cost of the DDHD1 Gene SPG28 NGS Genetic DNA Test?

The cost of the DDHD1 Gene SPG28 NGS Genetic DNA Test at DNA Labs India is INR 20,000. This includes the cost of the test itself, as well as any necessary counseling and support from our team of genetic counselors.

Conclusion

The DDHD1 Gene SPG28 NGS Genetic DNA Test is a valuable tool for individuals who may be at risk for SPG28. By identifying a genetic mutation early on, individuals can take steps to manage their symptoms and receive appropriate medical care.
