MTHFR Genetic Test Panel
MTHFR Genetic Panel is evaluating a methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene mutation. This test identifies variations in the gene that affect how the body processes folate and regulates homocysteine levels, which may be linked to certain health conditions like blood clots and cardiovascular disease. A mutation in the MTHFR gene can lead to reduced enzyme efficiency, potentially causing high levels of homocysteine and low levels of folate in the blood.
