Abstract

Narkolepsie ist eine seltene neurologische Erkrankung mit den Hauptsymptomen Tagesschläfrigkeit und Kataplexie. Es wird eine immunvermittelte Pathogenese postuliert, bei der sowohl genetische Faktoren (HLA-DQB1*06:02) wie auch Umweltfaktoren (Streptokokken, H1N1-Virus bzw. -Impfung) von Bedeutung sind und an deren Ende der Untergang von Hypokretin-produzierenden Zellen im Hypothalamus steht. Die aktuellen neuroimmunologischen Erkenntnisse helfen bei der Entwicklung innovativer therapeutischer Strategien.
