Detail Description

Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) Gene Panel: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Cost

Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) is a rare form of diabetes that is caused by a genetic mutation. It is often misdiagnosed as Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, but it has unique characteristics that differentiate it from other forms of diabetes. A MODY gene panel is a genetic test that can diagnose MODY. In this blog, we will discuss the symptoms, diagnosis, and cost of a MODY gene panel.

Symptoms of MODY

The symptoms of MODY are similar to other forms of diabetes, but there are some differences. MODY usually develops before the age of 25 and is often diagnosed in adolescents or young adults. The symptoms of MODY include:

  • High blood sugar
  • Frequent urination
  • Increased thirst
  • Blurred vision
  • Fatigue
  • Weight loss

Unlike Type 1 diabetes, MODY is not usually associated with autoimmune disorders or the presence of antibodies in the blood. It is also not usually associated with obesity or insulin resistance, which are common in Type 2 diabetes.

Diagnosis of MODY

Diagnosing MODY can be challenging because it is rare and often misdiagnosed as other forms of diabetes. A MODY gene panel is a genetic test that can diagnose MODY. The test analyzes the DNA of the patient to identify any mutations in genes that are associated with MODY. The test is usually done using a blood sample.

The MODY gene panel can identify mutations in several genes, including:

  • GCK
  • HNF1A
  • HNF4A
  • PDX1
  • INS
  • ABCC8
  • KCNJ11

If a mutation is identified, it can confirm a diagnosis of MODY. If no mutations are found, further testing may be necessary to rule out other forms of diabetes.

Cost of MODY Gene Panel

The cost of a MODY gene panel in India is approximately INR 20,000. The cost may vary depending on the laboratory and the specific genes included in the panel. It is important to check with the laboratory for specific pricing information.

Conclusion

Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) is a rare form of diabetes that is caused by a genetic mutation. It is often misdiagnosed as Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, but it has unique characteristics that differentiate it from other forms of diabetes. A MODY gene panel is a genetic test that can diagnose MODY. The test analyzes the DNA of the patient to identify any mutations in genes that are associated with MODY. The cost of a MODY gene panel in India is approximately INR 20,000. If you are experiencing symptoms of diabetes, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the appropriate course of action.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the cost of Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) Gene Panel?

    Cost of Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) Gene Panel is 20000 Rs

  • What is MODY?

    Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) is a rare kind of diabetes that runs in families. Like type 1 and type 2 diabetes, MODY affects the way your body uses and stores sugar from food. But treatment can be different, so it's important to get the right diagnosis.

  • What Are the Symptoms?

    The signs of MODY can depend on which of your genes is affected. In some cases, there may be no symptoms at all. But in general, the disease comes on gradually. You may have high blood sugar for years before you notice one of these warning signs:

    • Thirsty or hungry more often
    • Peeing more often Blurry vision
    • Skin yeast infections
    • Weight loss Fatigue
  • How Is It Diagnosed?

    Because there can be no symptoms or mild ones, you and your doctor may not realize at first that you have MODY. Your doctor may diagnose you with diabetes when a blood test shows that your blood sugar levels are high. The next step is to figure out what kind of diabetes you have. Based on these results, your doctor might suggest that you get genetic testing to confirm you have MODY. 

  • How Is MODY Treated?

    There are different types of MODY based on which of your genes has a mutation.

    • MODY 1 and MODY 4. They're usually treated with sulfonylureas, a type of diabetes medication. These drugs cause your pancreas to make more insulin. Some people with MODY 1 and MODY 4 may also need to take insulin.
    • MODY 2. This disease is usually managed through diet and exercise. You usually don't have to take medicine.
    • MODY 3. At first, this form of the disease can be treated through diet. Over time, you may need sulfonylureas and then insulin.
  • Who Gets It?

    MODY is usually inherited, so your odds of getting it are higher if you have family members with the disease. If you have a parent with MODY, there's a 50% chance that you'll get it. In many cases, the disease reaches across more than one generation. It can affect a grandparent, parent, and child.

  • Causes for MODY:

    MODY can be caused by a mutation by HNF1A, GCK, HNF4A, and HNF1B genes, respectively. All of these genes provide instructions for making proteins involved in the production of insulin to control blood sugar levels in the body. 

  • What is the cost of the MODY Test?

    MODY Tests Costs 20000 Rs

  • How many days does it take for reports?

    Reports take 3-4 weeks
