Detail Description

WDR19 Gene Senior-Loken Syndrome Type 8 NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost INR: 20000 Symptoms Diagnosis

Senior-Loken Syndrome Type 8 is a rare genetic disorder that affects the kidneys and eyes. It is caused by mutations in the WDR19 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that is essential for the normal function of cilia, hair-like structures that line the respiratory tract, fallopian tubes, and other parts of the body.

Individuals with Senior-Loken Syndrome Type 8 typically experience kidney disease that can lead to kidney failure. They may also develop vision problems, including retinal degeneration, which can cause blindness. Symptoms of the disease may include:

• High blood pressure
• Proteinuria (protein in the urine)
• Reduced kidney function
• Vision loss
• Night blindness
• Photophobia (sensitivity to light)

If you or a loved one is experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to speak with a healthcare provider. A genetic DNA test can help diagnose Senior-Loken Syndrome Type 8 and identify the specific WDR19 gene mutation responsible for the disease.
