Summary:The latest findings on the extraordinarily strong association between HLA-DR2, Dw2, DPwl and narcolepsy are here thoroughly documented. Recent observations on immunological aspects, DNA typings and 16 other genetic markers in narcolepsy are dealt with, and investigations into the molecular biological and genetic aspects of an animal dog model are described. The book also provides details of extensive clinical studies performed in Japan on several hundred patients suffering from narcolepsy and related disorders of excessive daytime somnolence. Finally, the book considers the rapidly advancing research into HLA and DNA and the potential significance of these findings to the development of DNA diagnosis of narcolepsy.
