Understanding Your Results

Results from the CYP1A2 Gene NGS Genetic Test indicate the presence or absence of genetic variations that may impact enzyme function and drug metabolism.
📊

No pathogenic variants detected

Suggests normal CYP1A2 gene function; standard drug metabolism expected.

📊

Pathogenic variant(s) detected

Indicates altered cytochrome P450 enzyme activity, which may require medication adjustments and increased monitoring for adverse reactions.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor immediately after receiving results to discuss implications for treatment, lifestyle, and family planning, especially if pathogenic variants are found.

Limitations

  • Test may not detect all rare mutations in the CYP1A2 gene
  • Results require clinical correlation and genetic counseling
  • Does not cover all genes involved in drug metabolism

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk associated with blood draw, such as bruising or discomfort
  • Potential psychological impact from genetic results requiring counseling

Interfering Factors

The CYP1A2 gene encodes the cytochrome P450 enzyme, which is involved in the metabolism of drugs, caffeine, and toxins in the liver.
Why is the CYP1A2 Gene NGS Genetic Test important?
It helps identify genetic variations that can lead to altered drug metabolism, allowing for personalized treatment plans and reducing the risk of adverse reactions.
How is the test performed?
The test uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) to analyze DNA from a blood sample or extracted DNA, detecting mutations in the CYP1A2 gene.
What sample is required for the test?
A blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card can be used.
Is fasting required before sample collection?
No, fasting is generally not required for this genetic test, but follow any specific instructions provided during counseling.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
What do the results indicate?
Results show whether pathogenic variants are present in the CYP1A2 gene, which may affect enzyme function and drug metabolism.
Can this test diagnose diseases like cancer or Parkinson's?
The test identifies genetic risk factors but does not diagnose diseases; it helps assess susceptibility and guide further medical evaluation.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection across numerous cities in India for online bookings.
What is the cost of the test?
The CYP1A2 Gene Cytochrome P450 deficiency NGS Genetic Test costs INR 20,000 at DNA Labs India.
Is the test covered by insurance?
