Understanding Your Genetic Health: LYST Gene Chediak-Higashi Syndrome Testing
When you’re concerned about rare genetic conditions affecting your family’s health, finding clear answers can feel overwhelming. At Oracle Genomics, we understand the emotional journey of genetic testing and provide compassionate, accurate testing for Chediak-Higashi syndrome through our advanced LYST gene analysis.
What Does This Test Detect?
The LYST gene NGS DNA test specifically identifies mutations in the LYST gene that cause Chediak-Higashi syndrome – a rare inherited disorder affecting the immune system and pigmentation. Using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we examine your DNA with 99.9% accuracy to provide definitive answers about your genetic status.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Recurrent infections and weakened immune response
- Partial albinism or unusually light skin and hair
- Neurological symptoms or developmental delays
- Family history of Chediak-Higashi syndrome
- Unexplained bleeding tendencies or platelet abnormalities
Early detection through genetic testing can guide appropriate medical management and family planning decisions.
