Find Clarity in Your Lupus Journey with Advanced Genetic Testing
When unexplained symptoms, family history, or the fear of autoimmune conditions weigh on your mind, finding answers becomes essential for your peace of mind. Our DNASE1L3 Gene Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Type 16 NGS Genetic DNA Test is designed to provide the clarity and confidence you need to take control of your health journey.
Understanding Your DNASE1L3 Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test specifically analyses the DNASE1L3 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic analysis. The DNASE1L3 gene plays a crucial role in your body’s immune system regulation, and variations in this gene are strongly associated with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Type 16, a specific form of this autoimmune condition.
Unlike general screening tests, our targeted analysis provides precise information about your genetic predisposition, helping you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions about your health management.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained joint pain, swelling, or morning stiffness
- Persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Skin rashes, particularly butterfly-shaped rash across cheeks and nose
- Fever without apparent cause
- Family history of lupus or other autoimmune conditions
- Unexplained hair loss or mouth sores
- Sensitivity to sunlight causing skin reactions
- Chest pain when breathing deeply
If you have a first-degree relative with lupus, your genetic risk increases significantly, making this test an essential step in proactive health management.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Understanding your genetic predisposition to lupus type 16 provides powerful benefits:
- Proactive Health Management: Early knowledge allows for timely interventions and monitoring
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Your results help healthcare providers create targeted treatment strategies
- Family Planning Insights: Understand potential genetic risks for future generations
- Peace of Mind: Replace uncertainty with clear, actionable information
- Reduced Healthcare Costs: Early detection can prevent costly complications and hospitalisations
Many patients report feeling empowered and relieved after receiving their genetic results, as it transforms uncertainty into actionable knowledge.

- Explain your results in clear, understandable language
- Discuss what your genetic findings mean for your health
- Provide guidance on next steps and monitoring
