Episodic Ataxia Type 1 Hotspot Test
Episodic Ataxia Type 1 (EA1) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the nervous system. It is characterized by episodes of uncoordinated movement, tremors, and dizziness. EA1 is caused by mutations in the KCNA1 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that helps regulate the flow of potassium ions in nerve cells.
Symptoms of Episodic Ataxia Type 1
The symptoms of EA1 can vary in severity and frequency. Episodes of symptoms typically last from seconds to minutes and can be triggered by stress, fatigue, or exercise. Common symptoms include:
- Uncoordinated movement
- Tremors
- Dizziness
- Slurred speech
- Double vision
Diagnosis of Episodic Ataxia Type 1
EA1 can be diagnosed through genetic testing, which looks for mutations in the KCNA1 gene. A blood sample is taken from the patient and sent to a laboratory for analysis. If a mutation is found, the patient is diagnosed with EA1.
Episodic Ataxia Type 1 Hotspot Test Cost
The cost of the Episodic Ataxia Type 1 Hotspot Test at DNA Labs India is INR 11,500. This includes genetic counseling, sample collection, and analysis of the KCNA1 gene for mutations.
