Find Answers for Chronic Respiratory Symptoms with CCDC65 Gene Testing
Living with persistent respiratory infections, chronic cough, or breathing difficulties can be exhausting and worrying. If you’ve been searching for answers about recurring lung and sinus problems, our CCDC65 Gene Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Type 27 test provides the clarity you need. This advanced genetic test helps identify the underlying cause of ciliary dysfunction, giving you and your healthcare team the information needed to develop an effective management plan.
Understanding the CCDC65 Gene Test
Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetic condition that affects the tiny hair-like structures called cilia that line your respiratory tract. When these cilia don’t function properly, they can’t effectively clear mucus and debris from your airways, leading to chronic respiratory symptoms. The CCDC65 gene plays a crucial role in cilia structure and movement, and mutations in this gene can cause PCD Type 27.
Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology provides comprehensive analysis of the CCDC65 gene, detecting even subtle genetic variations that might be missed by other testing methods. This thorough approach ensures you receive the most accurate results possible.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experience:
- Chronic cough that persists despite treatment
- Recurrent pneumonia or bronchitis
- Frequent sinus infections
- Persistent nasal congestion from birth
- Middle ear infections in early childhood
- Breathing difficulties that don’t improve with standard treatments
- Family history of similar respiratory symptoms
Early diagnosis can help prevent long-term lung damage and guide appropriate treatment strategies.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting an accurate diagnosis through CCDC65 gene testing provides several important benefits:
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Knowing the genetic cause of your symptoms allows healthcare providers to tailor treatments specifically for PCD
- Prevention of Complications: Early intervention can help prevent progressive lung damage and other complications
- Family Planning Guidance: Understanding your genetic status helps inform family planning decisions
- Peace of Mind: Having a clear diagnosis reduces uncertainty and anxiety about your symptoms
- Improved Quality of Life: Proper management can significantly reduce symptom frequency and severity
Understanding Your Test Results
Our comprehensive approach includes genetic counselling to help you understand your results and their implications. Your results will clearly indicate whether CCDC65 gene mutations were detected and what this means for your health. Our team will explain:
- The specific genetic variations found (if any)
- How these variations affect cilia function
- What the results mean for your current symptoms
- Recommended next steps for management and treatment
- Implications for family members
We’re here to support you through every step of the process, ensuring you feel confident and informed about your genetic health.
