Find Clarity About Mitochondrial Health Concerns
When you’re worried about mysterious neurological symptoms or have a family history of mitochondrial disorders, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. Our BOLA3 Gene Test provides the definitive answers you need to understand your genetic health and make empowered decisions for your family’s future.
Understanding Your BOLA3 Gene Test
The BOLA3 gene plays a crucial role in your body’s energy production system. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to Multiple Mitochondrial Dysfunctions Syndrome Type 2 – a serious condition affecting how your cells generate energy. Our advanced NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology examines your BOLA3 gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could impact your health.
Think of mitochondria as your body’s power plants – when they don’t work properly, it can affect multiple systems, particularly the brain and nervous system. This test gives you clear, reliable information about your genetic makeup, helping you and your healthcare provider understand potential risks and plan appropriate care.
Who Should Consider This Important Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experience:
- Unexplained neurological symptoms or developmental delays
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders
- Progressive neurological deterioration in infancy or childhood
- Multiple organ system involvement without clear diagnosis
- Metabolic abnormalities or lactic acidosis

Many South African families have found answers through genetic testing when traditional diagnostic methods provided unclear results. If you’ve been searching for explanations about complex health issues, this test could provide the breakthrough you need.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family’s Health
Getting tested for BOLA3 gene mutations offers several crucial benefits:
- Peace of Mind: Either rule out the condition or get definitive answers to guide treatment
