It identifies variances in DNA and screens for a predisposition toward medical issues, the cause of medical conditions and can identify a health risk. It\u2019s both a fast and reliable way to diagnose conditions by unlocking the entire protein-coding regions of the genome.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The genome is the entire DNA content that is present within one cell and is approximately 6 billion letters long, repeating sequences A,G,T, C. They teach all your cells how to operate with the genetic code, acting like an instruction manual for how the body functions. As knowledge continues to evolve in genetics, Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) and Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) are being introduced to practitioners to identify a patient\u2019s genetic code for better care or to identify more precise treatment.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;130586&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1707343924515{padding-top: 5em !important;padding-bottom: 5em !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner rtl_reverse=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; gap=&#8221;25&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;130280&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Pharmacogenomics <span style=\"color: var(--primary);\">(PGx)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is the study of how genetic variations influence the way an individual responds to medications. Our testing identifies variations in a number of genes that influences responses to medications. PGx is now enabling doctors to test for specific genetic changes to predict whether a patient may have a normal response, a poor response, or a higher risk of side effects before prescribing a specific medication.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We concentrate on the genes encoding the metabolising enzymes (i.e. CYP450 enzymes) which are found mainly in the liver and the gut wall. These genetic variations predict the level of enzyme activity which in turn results in increased or decreased plasma concentrations and drug exposure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increased plasma concentrations, due to reduced enzyme activity, can lead to adverse effects. Reduced plasma concentrations, due to increased enzyme activity, can lead to poor therapeutic response.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We offer Multiple Category Medication testing including pain, oncology, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and psychotropic medications.
