FAQ
What is piebaldism?
Piebaldism is a genetic condition characterized by white patches of skin and hair, caused by a lack of melanocytes in those areas. This disorder has its roots in mutations that lead to the inability for cells to produce functioning KIT proteins.
What tests include assessing mutation in the KIT gene?
Tests for assessing mutations in the KIT gene include:
- Sanger sequencing
- Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA)
- Quantitative PCR (qPCR)
- Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS)
- Multiplex PCR-based assays
- Digital PCR (dPCR)
- Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH)

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the KIT mutation testing in Mehsana to detect mutations in the KIT gene.
Overview of KIT Mutation Testing
KIT mutation testing is a type of genetic testing that looks for mutations in the KIT gene. The KIT gene provides instructions for making proteins called receptor tyrosine kinases that help to control the growth, division, and movement of cells, particularly in the skin and gastrointestinal tract. Mutations in this gene are associated with a variety of diseases. KIT mutation testing can help to diagnose these and other conditions, as well as provide information about the likelihood of disease recurrence or progression.
Sterling Accuris offers an accurate KIT mutation testing in Mehsana, with timely reports.
Why and When Is The KIT Mutation Testing Done?
KIT mutation testing can help detect inherited genetic mutations that can cause certain diseases, such as gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Mutations in the KIT gene can lead to the development of GISTs, and by understanding the genetic makeup of a patient, doctors can make informed decisions about the best treatment plan. Additionally, KIT mutation testing can help identify those at risk of developing GISTs, allowing for early detection and intervention.
KIT mutation testing is used to detect a variety of cancers, including gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), mastocytosis, melanoma, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and other rare tumors. It can also be used to detect genetic mutations associated with certain hereditary diseases, such as Noonan Syndrome and Piebaldism.
A doctor may recommend this checkup if a person exhibits symptoms like:
- Abdominal pain or discomfort
- Diarrhea
- Nausea and vomiting
- Blood in the stool
- Unexplained weight loss
- Anemia
- skin pigmentation
- Fatigue or weakness
- Fatigue
- Headache
- Vision change
You can head to Sterling Accuris Diagnostics for a KIT mutation test in Mehsana.
KIT mutation testing: Main Highlights
- Instructions: No fasting is required
- Recommended age: All age groups
- Sample type for test: FFPE Tissue
How to interpret the KIT mutation testing
- If a mutation is identified that is known to be associated with a specific disease, then the results indicate that the patient has a genetic mutation that is likely to be causing their symptoms. Further testing is required.
- If no mutations are identified, then the results indicate that the patient does not have a known genetic cause for their symptoms.
