Find Clarity for Unexplained Neurological and Mitochondrial Symptoms
When you or your loved one experiences persistent muscle weakness, developmental delays, or unexplained neurological symptoms, the search for answers can feel overwhelming. Our AARS2 Gene Test provides the genetic clarity South African families need to understand complex mitochondrial disorders and make informed healthcare decisions.
Understanding Your AARS2 Genetic Test
The AARS2 gene plays a crucial role in mitochondrial function – the energy powerhouses of your cells. When this gene contains mutations, it can lead to Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency Type 8, a serious condition affecting multiple body systems. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your AARS2 gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying even subtle genetic variations that might be causing your symptoms.
This isn’t just another test – it’s a pathway to understanding the root cause of complex health issues that often go undiagnosed for years in South African healthcare settings.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained muscle weakness or fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Developmental delays in children or regression of skills
- Neurological symptoms like seizures, coordination problems, or cognitive issues
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders or similar conditions
- Multiple unexplained symptoms affecting different body systems
- Previous normal test results despite ongoing health concerns
Many South African patients travel between Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban seeking answers – our genetic testing brings that clarity closer to home.
