Background:

Gluconeogenesis disorders are a set of conditions which initiate or involved in glucose production for energy metabolism. Disruption in these biochemical pathways include neurological disorders, failure to thrive, and elevated lactate levels. This next-generation sequencing test assesses the coding regions in four genes associated to gluconeogenesis disorders. These conditions are inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.

Additional Info:

The Knight Cancer Institute at Oregon Health & Science University is a pioneer in the field of precision cancer medicine. The institute's director, Brian Druker, M.D., helped prove it was possible to shut down just the cells that enable cancer to grow. This breakthrough has made once-fatal forms of the disease manageable and transformed how cancer is treated. The OHSU Knight Cancer Institute is the only National Cancer Institute-designated Cancer Center between Sacramento and Seattle – an honor earned only by the nation's top cancer centers. It is headquarters for one of the National Cancer Institute's largest research collaboratives, SWOG, in addition to offering the latest treatments and technologies as well as hundreds of research studies and clinical trials.
