Multiomic single-cell sequencing of skin and blister fluid from patients with severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions.

Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR) are rare but life-threatening drug reactions mediated by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I-restricted CD8+ T-cells. To obtain an unbiased assessment of SCAR cellular immunopathogenesis, we performed single-cell (sc) transcriptome, surface proteome, and TCR sequencing (5' scRNA-TCR-CITE-seq, 10x Genomics) on unaffected skin, affected skin, and blister fluid from diverse SCAR patients. 5' scRNA-TCR-CITE-seq, 10x Genomics
