CEP152 Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 9 NGS Genetic DNA Test
Comprehensive Genetic Testing for Microcephaly
The CEP152 Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 9 NGS Genetic DNA Test represents a breakthrough in pediatric genetic diagnostics, offering families and healthcare providers critical insights into the genetic basis of microcephaly. This advanced testing methodology provides accurate detection of mutations in the CEP152 gene, which plays a crucial role in proper brain development and cellular division.
What Does This Test Measure?
This specialized genetic test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to comprehensively analyze the CEP152 gene for mutations associated with autosomal recessive microcephaly type 9. The test specifically detects:
- Point mutations and single nucleotide variants in the CEP152 gene
- Small insertions and deletions affecting gene function
- Genetic variants that disrupt centrosome function and neural development
- Inheritance patterns consistent with autosomal recessive conditions
Who Should Consider This Test?
This genetic test is recommended for individuals and families experiencing:
- Infants or children with significantly reduced head circumference
- Family history of microcephaly or developmental disorders
- Unexplained developmental delays or intellectual disabilities
- Previous children with neurological abnormalities
- Consanguineous relationships with increased genetic risk
- Prenatal ultrasound findings suggesting microcephaly
Key Benefits of Genetic Testing
Undergoing the CEP152 gene test provides numerous advantages for families and healthcare providers:
- Accurate Diagnosis: Confirms or rules out genetic causes of microcephaly
- Family Planning: Provides crucial information for future reproductive decisions
- Early Intervention: Enables timely medical management and support services
- Genetic Counseling: Helps families understand inheritance patterns and risks
- Peace of Mind: Reduces uncertainty and provides clear answers
Understanding Your Test Results
Your genetic test results will be carefully interpreted by our team of certified genetic specialists. Possible outcomes include:
- Positive Result: Identifies pathogenic mutations in the CEP152 gene, confirming the diagnosis of autosomal recessive microcephaly type 9
- Negative Result: No disease-causing mutations detected in the CEP152 gene
- Variant of Uncertain Significance: Identifies genetic changes with unknown clinical impact requiring further evaluation
- Carrier Status: Identifies individuals carrying one copy of the mutated gene without showing symptoms
