Find Clarity for Complex Neurological and Genetic Conditions
When you’re worried about unexplained symptoms like hearing loss, pigment changes, or digestive issues affecting your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. The SOX10 Gene Test provides the definitive answers you need to understand these complex conditions and plan your healthcare journey with confidence.
Understanding Your SOX10 Genetic Test
The SOX10 gene plays a crucial role in developing your nervous system and pigment cells. When mutations occur in this gene, they can lead to three distinct but related conditions:
- Peripheral Demyelinating Neuropathy: Damage to the protective covering of nerve fibres, causing weakness and sensory changes
- Waardenburg Syndrome: Characterised by hearing loss and changes in skin, hair, and eye pigmentation
- Hirschsprung Disease: A digestive condition where nerve cells are missing from parts of the intestine
Our advanced NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology examines your SOX10 gene with 99.9% accuracy, providing clear, reliable results to guide your healthcare decisions.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained hearing loss, especially from birth
- Distinctive white forelock or early greying of hair
- Different coloured eyes (heterochromia iridis)
- Muscle weakness or numbness in hands and feet
- Chronic constipation or digestive issues from infancy
- Family history of any combination of these symptoms
Early genetic testing can provide answers that may have taken generations to uncover, giving your family the clarity needed for proper management and care.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health

- Access Targeted Care: Receive appropriate treatments and interventions specific to your condition
- Make Informed Family Planning Decisions: Understand inheritance patterns and risks for future children
