CDC73 Gene Hyperparathyroidism Type 2 Familial NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction to the Test
The CDC73 Gene Hyperparathyroidism Type 2 Familial NGS Genetic DNA Test is a specialized genetic test designed to evaluate mutations in the CDC73 gene, which are linked to familial hyperparathyroidism. This condition can lead to elevated levels of parathyroid hormone, resulting in various health issues, including kidney stones, osteoporosis, and other metabolic disorders. Understanding your genetic predisposition is crucial for early intervention and management.
What the Test Measures
This test detects specific mutations in the CDC73 gene that may indicate a higher risk for developing hyperparathyroidism type 2. By utilizing Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the test provides a comprehensive analysis of the gene, ensuring accurate results.
Who Should Consider This Test?
Individuals with a family history of hyperparathyroidism or those exhibiting symptoms such as:
- Frequent kidney stones
- Bone pain or fractures
- Fatigue and weakness
- Abdominal pain
should consider this test. Additionally, individuals with a known family history of CDC73 mutations are strongly encouraged to undergo testing for proactive health management.
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Identifies genetic predisposition to hyperparathyroidism.
- Informs treatment and management strategies.
- Provides peace of mind for at-risk individuals.
- Guides family planning decisions by identifying hereditary risks.
Understanding Your Results
Results from the CDC73 Gene Hyperparathyroidism Type 2 test will indicate whether mutations are present. A positive result suggests a higher risk of developing hyperparathyroidism, while a negative result may provide reassurance. It is essential to discuss your results with a healthcare professional for comprehensive understanding and management options.
