What does this test Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency (LAD) Test identify?

The Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency (LAD) Test identifies a rare genetic disorder that affects the immune system. This disorder causes white blood cells to be unable to properly stick to blood vessel walls and migrate to sites of infection or inflammation. As a result, individuals with LAD have a weakened immune response and are more susceptible to recurrent infections.

Why is this test Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency (LAD) Test taken?

Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency (LAD) Test is taken to diagnose a rare genetic disorder that affects the immune system. Individuals with LAD have a deficiency in certain proteins that are responsible for allowing white blood cells to stick to the walls of blood vessels and move towards sites of infection or inflammation. This results in impaired immune response and recurrent bacterial infections.

The test is typically recommended for individuals who have recurrent or severe bacterial infections, delayed wound healing, and other symptoms suggestive of LAD. It helps in confirming the diagnosis and guiding appropriate treatment strategies.
