Find Answers for Unexplained Neurological Symptoms and Hearing Loss
When your child experiences developmental delays, hearing loss, or neurological symptoms without clear cause, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. The SERAC1 Gene NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity you need to understand and manage 3-methylglutaconic aciduria with deafness, encephalopathy and Leigh-like syndrome – a complex genetic condition affecting multiple body systems.
Understanding Your SERAC1 Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines the SERAC1 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the gold standard in genetic analysis. The SERAC1 gene plays a crucial role in mitochondrial function and cholesterol metabolism. When mutations occur, they can lead to 3-methylglutaconic aciduria – a metabolic disorder that causes hearing loss, neurological deterioration, and Leigh-like syndrome symptoms.
Our test provides comprehensive analysis with exceptional accuracy, giving you reliable results you can trust for making important healthcare decisions.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experience:
- Unexplained hearing loss or deafness from early childhood
- Developmental delays or regression in motor skills
- Neurological symptoms including seizures or movement disorders
- Muscle weakness or poor muscle tone
- Vision problems or optic atrophy
- Family history of similar neurological conditions
- Unexplained metabolic abnormalities
Early detection through genetic testing can help guide appropriate management and treatment strategies.
