Pruebas
This test measures the level of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in a sample of your blood. A hormone is a chemical messenger in your bloodstream that controls the actions of certain cells or organs. FSH plays an important role in sexual development in children and fertility in adults.
Glossary Term
Refers to a process where a sample is preserved with formalin and then embedded into a paraffin block for sectioning.
Indicadores
This gene plays a role in the modulation of gene expression.
Indicadores
This gene is involved in transcriptional regulation and may play a role in myogenic growth and differentiation.
Glossary Term
A mutation occurring within the protein-coding region of a gene which results in a shift in the reading frame of the encoded protein. Frameshift mutations often result in the premature truncation of a gene product.
Pruebas
A free light chains test measures the level of free light chains in your blood. Light chains are proteins made by plasma cells, a type of white blood cell. Light chains usually link up with other proteins called heavy chains. Together, the light and heavy chains make immunoglobulins, also called antibodies. Antibodies are proteins that your immune system makes to fight germs such as viruses and bacteria .
Glossary Term
Tissue that is not frozen or embedded in preservatives
Glossary Term
A tissue sample that has been frozen prior to analysis.

This test measures the amount of G6PD in your blood. G6PD stands for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. It's an enzyme, a protein that speeds up certain chemical reactions in your body. It helps your red blood cells work properly. Red blood cells move oxygen from your lungs to every cell in your body. Your cells need oxygen to grow, reproduce, and stay healthy.
Pruebas
A galactosemia test is a blood test given to newborns to check for a rare genetic metabolic disorder called galactosemia. Metabolic disorders affect metabolism, the process your body uses to make energy from the food you eat. Galactosemia can be inherited (passed down through families), but to have the condition, your baby has to receive the gene from both parents. Genes are parts of DNA in your cells that you inherit from your parents. You inherit two copies of each gene, one from each parent.
