These results illustrate the extraordinary conservation of HLA class II effects in narcolepsy across populations and show that DRB1*15:01 has no effect on narcolepsy susceptibility in the absence of DQB1*06:02.

To further define the genetic basis of narcolepsy risk, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 562 European individuals with narcolepsy (cases) and 702 ethnically matched controls, with independent replication in 370 cases and 495 controls, all heterozygous for DRB1*1501-DQB1*0602.

Complementary approaches were used to investigate residual predisposing effects of microsatellite alleles comprising the extended DRB1*15 haplotype taking into account the strong predisposing effect of DRB1*15: (1) Disease association of the extended DRB1*15 haplotype was compared for MS and narcolepsy families--predisposing effects were observed for extended class I microsatellite marker alleles in MS families, but not narcolepsy families; (2) disease association of the extended DRB1*15 haplotype was investigated after conditioning MS and control haplotypes on the absence of DRB1*15--a significant predisposing effect was observed for a 627-kb haplotype (D6S258 allele 8-MOGCA allele 4; MOG, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein) spanning the extended class I region.

Several DRB1 (*0101, *0405, *0901) and DQB1 alleles (*0303, *0401, *0501, *0601, *0604) were found to have weak protective effects against narcolepsy.

The T-allele of the C-857T polymorphism was strongly associated with narcolepsy in the subgroup of DRB1*15/16 (HLA-DR2 type) negative patients, but not in DRB1*15/16 positive patients.

In previous studies, we suggested that the tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha and its receptor 2 (TNFR2) genes could be associated with the susceptibility to human narcolepsy, and that haplotype carrying DRB1*1502 had a negative association with the disorder.

Although narcolepsy is highly associated with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DQ6/DQB1*0602 and/or DR2/DRB1*1501, most individuals with the HLA haplotype are free of narcolepsy.

A genetic factor strongly associated with the disorder has been found in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II region: the haplotype, DRB1*1501-DQB1*0602, predisposes to narcolepsy.
