Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of pathogenic mutations in the ACE gene. A positive result confirms genetic predisposition to renal tubular dysgenesis, while a negative result suggests no detected mutations, though clinical correlation is essential.
Positive result: Pathogenic ACE gene mutation detected, confirming genetic etiology for renal tubular dysgenesis
Negative result: No pathogenic variants identified; consider other genetic or environmental factors
Variant of uncertain significance (VUS): Further testing or family studies may be recommended
Consult a geneticist or nephrologist for comprehensive interpretation and management planning
⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If symptoms of renal tubular dysgenesis are present, such as poor feeding, vomiting, dehydration, low blood pressure, or impaired kidney function, or if there is a family history of the condition.

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk from blood draw, such as slight pain or bruising
  • Rare risk of infection at the collection site

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cost of the ACE Gene Renal Tubular Dysgenesis NGS Genetic Test?
The cost is INR 20,000, which includes the genetic test and counseling services.
How is the test performed?
The test uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology on a blood sample or cheek swab to analyze the ACE gene for mutations.
What is renal tubular dysgenesis?
It is a rare genetic condition that impairs kidney development, often diagnosed prenatally due to low amniotic fluid or postnatally with symptoms like poor feeding and dehydration.
Who should consider this test?
Individuals with symptoms of renal tubular dysgenesis, a family history of the condition, or prenatal indicators such as oligohydramnios.
What is the turnaround time for results?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection for online bookings across India.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result indicates a pathogenic mutation in the ACE gene, confirming a genetic basis for renal tubular dysgenesis.
Are there any risks associated with the test?
The test involves minimal risks, such as slight discomfort from blood draw or cheek swab.
How accurate is the test?
The NGS-based test is highly accurate for detecting mutations in the ACE gene, but clinical correlation is recommended.
What should I do after receiving the results?
Consult a geneticist or nephrologist for interpretation, genetic counseling, and management planning.
Is the test covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on the insurance provider; it is not universally covered. Check with your insurer.
Can this test be used for prenatal diagnosis?
Yes, it can be used prenatally if there are indicators like low amniotic fluid, often in conjunction with other diagnostic methods.
