SBF2 Gene CMT4B2 NGS Genetic DNA Test
Comprehensive Genetic Testing for Neurological Disorders
The SBF2 Gene CMT4B2 NGS Genetic DNA Test represents a breakthrough in neurological genetic diagnostics, specifically designed to identify mutations in the SBF2 gene that cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4B2 (CMT4B2). This advanced testing methodology utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing technology to provide unparalleled accuracy in detecting genetic variations associated with this rare inherited peripheral neuropathy.
What Does the SBF2 Gene CMT4B2 Test Detect?
This sophisticated genetic test specifically targets and analyzes the SBF2 (SET Binding Factor 2) gene, which plays a crucial role in peripheral nerve function. The test identifies:
- Pathogenic mutations in the SBF2 gene associated with CMT4B2
- Single nucleotide variants and small insertions/deletions
- Copy number variations affecting the SBF2 gene
- Autosomal recessive inheritance patterns
- Genetic markers for disease progression and severity
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly recommended for individuals experiencing:
- Progressive muscle weakness in hands and feet
- Sensory loss and numbness in extremities
- Foot deformities such as high arches or hammertoes
- Difficulty walking or frequent tripping
- Family history of peripheral neuropathy
- Unexplained neurological symptoms in childhood or adolescence
- Consanguineous family backgrounds with neurological disorders
Clinical Benefits of SBF2 Gene Testing
Undergoing the SBF2 Gene CMT4B2 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides numerous clinical advantages:
- Accurate Diagnosis: Confirms or rules out CMT4B2 with high precision
- Early Intervention: Enables proactive management before significant disability develops
- Personalized Treatment: Guides targeted therapeutic approaches
- Family Planning: Provides crucial information for genetic counseling
- Prognostic Information: Helps predict disease progression and severity
- Research Contribution: Advances understanding of rare neurological conditions
Understanding Your Test Results
Your genetic test results will be carefully interpreted by our expert genetic counselors and neurologists:
- Positive Result: Indicates the presence of pathogenic SBF2 mutations confirming CMT4B2 diagnosis
- Negative Result: Suggests absence of detectable SBF2 mutations, though other genetic causes may need investigation
- Variant of Uncertain Significance: Identifies genetic changes with unclear clinical implications requiring further evaluation
- Carrier Status: Determines if you carry one copy of a mutated gene without showing symptoms
