Understanding Your Results

Results from the NCF2 Gene NGS Genetic Test indicate the presence or absence of mutations associated with Chronic Granulomatous Disease Type 2. Interpretation should be done by a qualified geneticist.
📊

No pathogenic variants detected

Normal result; low likelihood of CGD2 due to NCF2 mutations

📊

Pathogenic variant detected

Confirms diagnosis of CGD2; genetic counseling recommended

📊

Variant of uncertain significance (VUS)

Further testing or family studies may be needed for clarification

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult a doctor if you experience recurrent infections, chronic inflammation, or have a family history of CGD2. After testing, consult for result interpretation and management plans.

Limitations

  • May not detect all types of mutations, such as large deletions or intronic variants
  • Requires genetic counseling for proper interpretation
  • Results should be correlated with clinical findings

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risks from blood draw, such as bruising or infection
  • Psychological impact of genetic results; counseling available

Interfering Factors

  • Sample contamination or degradation
  • Insufficient DNA quantity or quality
  • Recent blood transfusions affecting DNA analysis

Frequently Asked Questions

What is NCF2 Gene Granulomatous Disease?
It is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the NCF2 gene, leading to chronic granulomatous disease type 2 (CGD2), which affects the immune system.
What are the common symptoms of CGD2?
Symptoms include recurrent infections, chronic inflammation, granuloma formation, growth failure in children, and white blood cell abnormalities.
How is CGD2 diagnosed?
Diagnosis involves blood tests for immune function, genetic testing like NGS, imaging studies, and biopsy of affected tissues.
What is the cost of the NCF2 Gene NGS Genetic Test?
The test costs INR 20000 at DNA Labs India, with home sample collection available.
Is home sample collection available for this test?
Yes, free home sample collection is offered across India for online bookings.
How long does it take to receive the test results?
Results are typically available in 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
What does a positive test result mean?
A positive result indicates the presence of pathogenic mutations in the NCF2 gene, confirming CGD2 diagnosis and requiring genetic counseling.
Can CGD2 be treated?
While there is no cure, treatments include antibiotics, antifungals, interferon-gamma, and in some cases, stem cell transplantation.
Is the test covered by insurance?
Coverage varies; check with your insurance provider. DNA Labs India offers competitive pricing.
Who should consider this genetic test?
Individuals with symptoms of CGD2, family history of the disease, or abnormal immune function tests should consider testing.
What is the accuracy of NGS testing for CGD2?
NGS is highly accurate for detecting mutations in the NCF2 gene, with sensitivity and specificity over 99%.
How can I prepare for the test?
No special preparation is needed, but provide clinical history and attend a genetic counseling session for pedigree analysis.
