TWNK Gene Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia with Mitochondrial Deletions Type 3, Autosomal Dominant NGS Genetic Test
Progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the muscles that control eye movement. It is characterized by weakness or paralysis of the eye muscles, causing difficulty in moving the eyes. PEO can be caused by mutations in different genes, including the TWNK gene. TWNK-related PEO is a type of mitochondrial disease that is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.
Symptoms of TWNK-Related PEO
Some of the common symptoms of TWNK-related PEO include:
- Weakness or paralysis of the eye muscles
- Drooping eyelids (ptosis)
- Double vision (diplopia)
- Difficulty in moving the eyes
- Facial muscle weakness
- Difficulty in swallowing (dysphagia)
- Generalized muscle weakness (myopathy)
Diagnosis of TWNK-Related PEO
TWNK-related PEO is diagnosed through genetic testing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a powerful tool used for genetic testing. NGS can analyze multiple genes simultaneously and can detect even small mutations in the DNA. The DNA sample for NGS can be obtained through a blood test or a cheek swab. The cost of the TWNK gene autosomal dominant NGS Genetic Test is INR 20,000.
Treatment of TWNK-Related PEO
There is no cure for TWNK-related PEO. Treatment options focus on managing the symptoms and improving quality of life. Physical therapy can help improve muscle strength and mobility. Eyeglasses or surgery may be needed to correct vision problems. Speech therapy may be necessary to help with swallowing difficulties.
Conclusion
TWNK-related PEO is a rare genetic disorder that affects the eye muscles and is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. NGS genetic testing can help diagnose TWNK-related PEO. Although there is no cure, treatment options can help manage the symptoms and improve quality of life. If you suspect that you or a loved one may have TWNK-related PEO, it is important to speak with a genetic counselor or a healthcare provider.
