FCGR2B Gene and Malaria Resistance: NGS Genetic Test at DNA Labs India
Malaria is a deadly disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there were an estimated 229 million cases of malaria worldwide in 2019, with 409,000 deaths. India is one of the countries with the highest malaria burden, accounting for 88% of cases in the Southeast Asia region. However, not everyone is equally susceptible to malaria. Some people have genetic variations that provide natural resistance to the disease, including a gene called FCGR2B.
What is the FCGR2B Gene?
The FCGR2B gene codes for a protein called Fc gamma receptor IIB, which is found on the surface of immune cells. This protein plays a role in regulating the immune response by binding to antibodies and inhibiting their activity. Studies have shown that certain variations in the FCGR2B gene are associated with increased resistance to malaria.
NGS Genetic Test for FCGR2B Gene and Malaria Resistance
At DNA Labs India, we offer Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) genetic testing for the FCGR2B gene and other genes related to malaria resistance. NGS is a state-of-the-art technology that can sequence millions of DNA fragments simultaneously, providing highly accurate and comprehensive genetic information.
Cost of NGS Genetic Test
The cost of the NGS Genetic Test for the FCGR2B gene and other genes related to malaria resistance is INR 20,000. This includes sample collection, DNA extraction, sequencing, and analysis. We provide a detailed report with the results of the test, including any genetic variations found and their potential implications for malaria susceptibility.
Symptoms and Diagnosis of Malaria
The symptoms of malaria include fever, chills, headache, muscle pain, and fatigue. These symptoms can be similar to those of other illnesses, so a definitive diagnosis requires laboratory testing. The most common diagnostic test for malaria is a blood test that detects the presence of the parasite.
Conclusion
Malaria is a serious global health problem, but genetic testing can help identify individuals who may be naturally resistant to the disease. DNA Labs India offers NGS genetic testing for the FCGR2B gene and other genes related to malaria resistance at an affordable cost.
