Understanding Crigler-Najjar Syndrome Type 1: Your Genetic Health Journey Starts Here
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 anxiety that comes with potential genetic disorders. Our UGT1A1 gene test provides the definitive clarity you need about Crigler-Najjar Syndrome Type 1 – a rare but serious condition that affects how your body processes bilirubin.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The UGT1A1 gene test examines specific genetic variations that can lead to Crigler-Najjar Syndrome Type 1. This condition prevents your liver from properly processing bilirubin, causing it to build up to dangerous levels. Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we analyse your DNA with exceptional precision to identify mutations in the UGT1A1 gene that could impact your health and your family’s future.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Persistent jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes) from birth
- Family history of severe jaundice or liver conditions
- Unexplained neurological symptoms in infancy
- Planning for pregnancy with family history of genetic disorders
- Previous children affected by severe jaundice
Early genetic testing can provide crucial information for family planning and proactive healthcare management.
