DSP
DSP (Desmoplakin) is a key protein that functions as a structural linker within cells, essential for the integrity and function of desmosomes—specialised cell-cell adhesion complexes found in epithelial and cardiac tissues. DSP plays a vital role in maintaining mechanical strength and cellular cohesion by anchoring intermediate filaments to desmosomal cadherins. This connection supports tissue stability in areas exposed to high mechanical stress, such as the skin, heart, and certain mucous membranes. Mutations in the DSP gene are associated with various genetic disorders, including cardiomyopathies and skin diseases, emphasising its importance in tissue architecture and function.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
