Understanding Your Results

Results indicate whether pathogenic mutations in the JUP gene are detected. A positive result confirms ARVC Type 12, while a negative result may not rule out other causes.
📊

Positive for pathogenic mutation

Confirms diagnosis of ARVC Type 12. Recommend cardiac evaluation and family screening.

📊

Negative for pathogenic mutation

No JUP gene mutations detected. Consider other genetic or non-genetic causes.

📊

Variant of uncertain significance

Further testing and clinical correlation recommended.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If you experience symptoms like palpitations, fainting, or chest pain, or if you have a family history of ARVC, consult a cardiologist or geneticist.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the JUP Gene ARVC Type 12 NGS Genetic Test?
This test uses Next-Generation Sequencing to detect mutations in the JUP gene that cause Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy Type 12, a genetic heart disorder.
Who should consider this test?
Individuals with a family history of ARVC, symptoms like palpitations or fainting, or abnormal cardiac test results should consider this test.
What are the symptoms of ARVC Type 12?
Common symptoms include heart palpitations, shortness of breath, fainting, chest pain, heart murmurs, and risk of sudden cardiac arrest.
How is the test performed?
A blood sample or DNA extract is analyzed using NGS technology to sequence the JUP gene and identify mutations.
What is the cost of the test?
The test costs INR 20,000 at DNA Labs India, with home sample collection available.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, we offer free home sample collection for online bookings across India.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
What do the results mean?
A positive result indicates a pathogenic JUP mutation, confirming ARVC Type 12. Negative means no mutations detected, and variants of uncertain significance require further evaluation.
Is genetic counseling required?
Yes, genetic counseling is recommended before and after testing to understand implications and interpret results.
Can this test prevent sudden cardiac death?
Early detection allows for monitoring and treatment, which can reduce the risk of sudden cardiac events.
Are there any risks to the test?
The test itself has minimal physical risks, but results may cause emotional distress. Discuss with your healthcare provider.
