  • Specimen stability: Stable at room temperature for up to 8 hours or refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 5 days
  • Specimen shipping: Ship with frozen gel packs
  • Turnaround time: 14 days

What are the measure values for the test Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel

  • ALAS2 Gene: Normal - 0-2 copies, Increased - >2 copies
  • SLC25A38 Gene: Normal - 0-2 copies, Increased - >2 copies
  • PUS1 Gene: Normal - 0-2 copies, Increased - >2 copies

What does this test Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel identify?

  • Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel identifies mutations in genes associated with sideroblastic anaemia, a group of inherited and acquired blood disorders characterized by inefficient iron utilization in red blood cells.
  • The panel includes analysis of genes such as ALAS2, SLC25A38, SLC25A39, ABCB7, GLRX5, and others that are known to be related to the development of sideroblastic anaemia.
  • Detection of mutations in these genes can help in diagnosing the specific subtype of sideroblastic anaemia and guiding appropriate treatment strategies.
  • Results from the gene panel can also provide valuable information for genetic counseling and family planning.

Why is this test Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel taken?

Why is the Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel taken?

Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel is a genetic test that is performed to diagnose Sideroblastic Anaemia, a rare disorder characterized by the inability of the body to produce enough healthy red blood cells. This condition can be inherited or acquired and is caused by mutations in certain genes that affect the production of heme, a component of hemoglobin.

The Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel helps to identify specific genetic mutations that may be responsible for the development of the disease. It can also help healthcare providers to determine the best course of treatment and management for individuals diagnosed with Sideroblastic Anaemia.

Overall, the Sideroblastic Anaemia Gene Panel is an important diagnostic tool that can provide valuable information about the underlying genetic causes of Sideroblastic Anaemia and guide healthcare decisions for affected individuals.
