Endocrinology

A large number of endocrine system diseases have a genetic basis, so that a genetic study allows a differential diagnosis to be made and the correct diagnosis to be obtained in the patient, which is essential for choosing the most appropriate treatment and significantly improving the prognosis.

All genes included in each of our targeted exomes are clinically highly relevant and have been selected from information contained in reference databases such as OMIM, HGMD, ClinVar and HPO, and in the most recent scientific literature.

DESCRIPTION

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic and irreversible disease of the metabolism in which there is an excess of glucose in the blood due to a decrease in the secretion of the hormone insulin or a deficiency of its action. It is a complex disease, determined by multiple genetic and environmental factors, with multiple genes involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. The general panel, where we analyse more than 190 associated genes, is recommended for patients with alterations in glucose metabolism.

DESCRIPTION

We offer different diagnostic possibilities based on exome sequencing, including the Clinical Exome study and the Trio Exome for familial cases. 

DESCRIPTION

We perform studies involving the analysis of a single gene, both by Sanger sequencing and NGS.

DESCRIPTION

We use the MLPA technique (Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification) for the identification of deletions/duplications or methylation alterations in a methylation alterations in a specific gene or region.
