Primary cartilage transcriptional signatures reflect cell-type-specific molecular pathways underpinning osteoarthritis

Abstract excerpt

Translational efforts in osteoarthritis are hampered by a gap in our understanding of disease processes at the molecular level. Here, we present evidence of pronounced transcriptional changes in high- and low-disease-grade cartilage tissue, pointing to embryonic processes involved in disease progression. We identify shared transcriptional programs between osteoarthritis cartilage and cell populations in the human...
