The Zap-70 Test (Zeta-chain-associated protein kinase 70) is a diagnostic test that measures the level of Zap-70 protein in immune cells. Zap-70 is a key protein involved in the signaling pathways of T-cells, which are crucial for immune response. The test is primarily used to diagnose ZAP-70 deficiency, a rare genetic disorder that affects immune function.

Description

Why It’s Done:
• To diagnose ZAP-70 deficiency, which causes severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), a condition where the immune system is severely compromised, leaving individuals vulnerable to infections.
• To help identify abnormalities in T-cell function and immune signaling.
• To assist in diagnosing immune system disorders in patients who exhibit recurrent infections or other symptoms related to immune dysfunction.

Preparation:
• No special preparation is generally needed, but it is important to follow any instructions provided by your healthcare provider. The test usually involves drawing a blood sample, so being well-hydrated can be helpful.
