Find Answers for Unexplained Neurological Symptoms with MT-ND1 Gene Testing
When you’re facing mysterious health challenges like muscle weakness, developmental delays, or neurological symptoms that doctors can’t explain, it can feel overwhelming and isolating. Our MT-ND1 Gene Mitochondrial Complex I Deficiency Test provides the clarity you deserve, using cutting-edge NGS technology to uncover the genetic roots of complex mitochondrial disorders affecting South African families.
Understanding Your MT-ND1 Gene Test
The MT-ND1 gene plays a crucial role in your body’s energy production system within mitochondria – the powerhouses of your cells. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to mitochondrial complex I deficiency, causing energy shortages that particularly affect high-energy organs like your brain, muscles, and nervous system. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines every detail of your MT-ND1 gene with 99.9% accuracy, providing definitive answers about potential genetic mutations.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is essential if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained muscle weakness or exercise intolerance
- Developmental delays in children
- Neurological symptoms like seizures or movement disorders
- Vision or hearing problems without clear cause
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders
- Multiple organ system involvement without diagnosis
- Unexplained fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
Many South African patients spend years searching for answers – our test can provide the genetic clarity needed for proper diagnosis and management.
