Detail Description

MT-TV Gene Ataxia: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Genetic Testing Cost

MT-TV Gene Ataxia is a rare genetic disorder that affects the nervous system, particularly the cerebellum. It is caused by mutations in the MT-TV gene, which provides instructions for making a protein involved in the production of energy within cells. When this protein is not produced correctly, it can lead to a range of symptoms, including progressive seizures, mental deterioration, and hearing loss.

Symptoms

The symptoms of MT-TV Gene Ataxia can vary from person to person, but may include:

• Ataxia (loss of coordination and balance)
• Progressive seizures
• Mental deterioration
• Hearing loss
• Visual impairment
• Dementia
• Muscle weakness

These symptoms typically appear in childhood or early adulthood and worsen over time. In some cases, the symptoms may not become apparent until later in life.

Diagnosis

Diagnosing MT-TV Gene Ataxia can be challenging because it is a rare disorder and its symptoms can be similar to those of other conditions. However, a genetic test can confirm the presence of MT-TV gene mutations.

The genetic test involves analyzing a small sample of blood or saliva for the presence of mutations in the MT-TV gene. The test is performed using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, which can identify multiple mutations at once.

Genetic Testing Cost

DNA Labs India offers MT-TV related NGS Genetic DNA Test at a cost of INR 20000. The test is performed using state-of-the-art technology and is highly accurate.

If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms of MT-TV Gene Ataxia, it is important to seek medical attention and consider genetic testing. Early diagnosis and treatment can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
