DNA Labs India: Understanding TMPRSS6 Gene Iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia NGS Genetic DNA Test

Iron deficiency anemia is a common condition that occurs when the body lacks sufficient iron to produce hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. Iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia (IRIDA) is a rare genetic disorder that impairs the body's ability to absorb iron, leading to severe anemia. IRIDA is caused by mutations in the TMPRSS6 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that regulates the uptake of iron in the body. Individuals with IRIDA have a defect in the TMPRSS6 protein, which results in a decrease in the production of hepcidin, a hormone that regulates the amount of iron absorbed from food. Symptoms of IRIDA include fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and pale skin. IRIDA can be diagnosed through a genetic test called Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) DNA test. This test examines the DNA sequence of the TMPRSS6 gene to identify any mutations that may be causing IRIDA. The cost of an NGS DNA test for IRIDA at DNA Labs India is INR 20,000. The test is a simple blood test that can be performed at any of the DNA Labs India facilities. The results of the test will help identify the specific mutation in the TMPRSS6 gene that is causing IRIDA, allowing for personalized treatment and management of the condition. In conclusion, IRIDA is a rare genetic disorder that impairs the body's ability to absorb iron, leading to severe anemia. It can be diagnosed through a genetic test called NGS DNA test, which examines the DNA sequence of the TMPRSS6 gene. DNA Labs India offers this test at a cost of INR 20,000. It is essential to diagnose and manage IRIDA early to prevent complications and improve the quality of life of affected individuals.
