DST Gene Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, Autosomal Recessive Type 2 NGS Genetic Test
Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) is a genetic skin disorder that causes blistering and skin erosions on the body. Autosomal recessive type 2 (EBS-AR2) is a subtype of EBS that is caused by mutations in the DST gene. The DST gene provides instructions for making a protein called dystonin, which helps to anchor the layers of the skin together.
NGS (Next-generation sequencing) is a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology that allows for the analysis of multiple genes at once. The DST Gene Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, Autosomal Recessive Type 2 NGS Genetic Test is a diagnostic test that can identify mutations in the DST gene that cause EBS-AR2.
Symptoms of EBS-AR2
The symptoms of EBS-AR2 typically begin at birth or in early infancy. They can include:
- Blisters on the skin, especially on the hands and feet
- Scarring
- Thickened skin
- Calluses on the palms and soles
- Nail dystrophy (abnormal nail growth)
Diagnosis of EBS-AR2
Diagnosis of EBS-AR2 is based on clinical evaluation and genetic testing. A dermatologist or genetic counselor may perform a skin biopsy to examine the skin under a microscope. Genetic testing can confirm the diagnosis by identifying mutations in the DST gene.
Cost of DST Gene Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, Autosomal Recessive Type 2 NGS Genetic Test
The cost of the DST Gene Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, Autosomal Recessive Type 2 NGS Genetic Test in India is approximately INR 20,000. The cost may vary depending on the laboratory and location.
Conclusion
The DST Gene Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, Autosomal Recessive Type 2 NGS Genetic Test is a valuable diagnostic tool for identifying mutations in the DST gene that cause EBS-AR2. Early diagnosis can lead to better management of the condition and improved quality of life for affected individuals. If you suspect that you or a loved one may have EBS-AR2, speak to a healthcare provider or genetic counselor about genetic testing.
