SLC1A3 Gene Episodic Ataxia Type 6 NGS Genetic Test
Episodic Ataxia Type 6 (EA6) is a rare autosomal dominant neurological disorder that affects the cerebellum and is caused by mutations in the SLC1A3 gene. It is characterized by episodes of ataxia, which is the inability to coordinate voluntary muscle movements. The episodes can last from seconds to hours and can be triggered by stress, physical exertion, or other factors. The condition usually appears in childhood or adolescence and can worsen over time.
Symptoms of EA6
The symptoms of EA6 can vary from person to person, but they typically include:
- Episodes of ataxia
- Dizziness
- Headaches
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Tremors
- Difficulty speaking or swallowing
Episodes of ataxia can be triggered by stress, physical exertion, or other factors. They typically last from seconds to hours and can occur several times per day or per week. Some people with EA6 may also experience seizures or other neurological symptoms.
Diagnosis of EA6
Diagnosis of EA6 is typically based on clinical symptoms and genetic testing. A neurologist may perform a physical exam and order imaging tests such as an MRI or CT scan to rule out other conditions. Genetic testing can confirm a diagnosis of EA6 by identifying mutations in the SLC1A3 gene.
NGS Genetic Test
NGS Genetic Testing is a highly sensitive and accurate method of detecting genetic mutations. It uses next-generation sequencing technology to analyze a person’s DNA and identify mutations that may be causing a particular condition. In the case of EA6, NGS Genetic Testing can identify mutations in the SLC1A3 gene that are associated with the disorder.
Cost of NGS Genetic Test
The cost of an NGS Genetic Test for EA6 can vary depending on the laboratory and location. In India, DNA Labs India offers an NGS Genetic Test for EA6 at a cost of INR 20,000. This test includes analysis of the SLC1A3 gene and can confirm a diagnosis of EA6.
Conclusion
EA6 is a rare neurological disorder that can cause episodes of ataxia, dizziness, headaches, and other symptoms. It is caused by mutations in the SLC1A3 gene and can be diagnosed through clinical symptoms and genetic testing. NGS Genetic Testing is a highly sensitive and accurate method of detecting genetic mutations and can confirm a diagnosis of EA6. DNA Labs India offers an NGS Genetic Test for EA6 at a cost of INR 20,000.
If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms of EA6, it is important to speak with a neurologist and consider genetic testing to confirm a diagnosis and receive appropriate treatment.
