Find Clarity About Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia with SPAST Gene SPG4 Testing
If you’re experiencing progressive leg stiffness, muscle weakness, or have a family history of hereditary spastic paraplegia, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our SPAST Gene SPG4 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to understand your neurological health and plan for the future with confidence.
Understanding Your SPAST Gene SPG4 Test
The SPAST gene produces a protein called spastin that is essential for maintaining healthy nerve cells. When mutations occur in this gene, it leads to SPG4 – the most common form of hereditary spastic paraplegia. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DNA with 99.9% accuracy to detect these mutations, giving you clear, reliable results about your genetic predisposition.
