Immunocyte single cell analysis of vaccine-induced narcolepsy.

Increased incidence of narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) was observed following Pandemrix®-vaccination, initiated as a preventive measure against the 2009 Influenza pandemic. Here, single cell analysis was conducted to suggest a lower number of CD8+ CD27+ T cells among these patients. These findings provide understanding into the autoimmune pathogenesis of NT1.
