NCF2 Gene Granulomatous Disease: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost

Granulomatous diseases are a group of disorders that cause inflammation and the formation of granulomas, which are clusters of immune cells that can damage tissues and organs. One of these diseases is caused by mutations in the NCF2 gene and is known as chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) type 2. This is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that a person must inherit two mutated copies of the gene (one from each parent) to develop the disease. CGD type 2 is also characterized by the presence of cytochrome b-positive bacteria in affected individuals.

Symptoms of CGD Type 2

The symptoms of CGD type 2 can vary widely depending on the severity of the disease and the organs affected. Some common symptoms include:

• Recurrent infections, particularly of the skin, lungs, and lymph nodes
• Fever
• Chronic diarrhea
• Abdominal pain
• Enlarged liver and spleen
• Lung abscesses

CGD type 2 can be diagnosed through genetic testing, which looks for mutations in the NCF2 gene. This testing can be done through next-generation sequencing (NGS), which is a high-throughput method for analyzing DNA that can identify multiple genetic mutations at once.

NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost for CGD Type 2

The cost of NGS genetic testing for CGD type 2 can vary depending on the laboratory performing the test and the specific genetic panel being used. However, on average, the cost of NGS testing for CGD type 2 in India is around INR 20,000.

Conclusion

CGD type 2 is a rare genetic disorder that can cause a variety of symptoms, including recurrent infections and inflammation. Genetic testing, such as NGS, can help diagnose the disorder and guide treatment options. If you or a loved one are experiencing symptoms of CGD type 2, it is important to seek medical attention and discuss the possibility of genetic testing with a healthcare provider.
