LARS2 Gene Hydrops, Lactic Acidosis and Sideroblastic Anemia NGS Genetic DNA Test
Comprehensive Genetic Testing for Mitochondrial Disorders
The LARS2 Gene NGS Genetic DNA Test represents a breakthrough in molecular diagnostics for rare metabolic conditions. This advanced genetic screening specifically targets mutations in the LARS2 gene, which encodes mitochondrial leucyl-tRNA synthetase—a critical enzyme involved in protein synthesis within mitochondria. Disruptions in this gene can lead to severe multisystem disorders characterized by hydrops fetalis, persistent lactic acidosis, and sideroblastic anemia.
What This Test Measures and Detects
Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology comprehensively analyzes the entire LARS2 gene to identify:
- Pathogenic variants affecting mitochondrial protein synthesis
- Mutations causing impaired oxidative phosphorylation
- Genetic alterations leading to abnormal iron metabolism
- Variants associated with mitochondrial respiratory chain dysfunction
- Inheritance patterns (autosomal recessive) for family planning
Who Should Consider This Test
This genetic test is recommended for individuals presenting with:
- Unexplained hydrops fetalis or fetal distress
- Persistent lactic acidosis without clear cause
- Sideroblastic anemia unresponsive to conventional iron therapy
- Developmental delays with metabolic abnormalities
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders
- Unexplained multi-organ dysfunction in infants
- Recurrent metabolic crises
Clinical Benefits of LARS2 Genetic Testing
Undergoing this comprehensive genetic analysis provides numerous advantages:
- Accurate Diagnosis: Confirms or rules out LARS2-related disorders with high precision
- Family Planning: Enables informed reproductive decisions for at-risk families
- Personalized Management: Guides targeted treatment approaches based on genetic findings
- Prognostic Information: Helps predict disease progression and potential complications
- Early Intervention: Facilitates timely management strategies for better outcomes
Understanding Your Test Results
Our comprehensive genetic report provides detailed interpretation of your results:
- Positive Result: Indicates the presence of pathogenic LARS2 variants, confirming diagnosis and guiding management
- Negative Result: Suggests LARS2 mutations are unlikely, directing further diagnostic evaluation
- Variant of Uncertain Significance: Requires additional family studies and clinical correlation
- Carrier Status: Identifies individuals with single mutation copies for genetic counseling
