Single-cell RNA sequencing in osteoarthritis.

ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis is a progressive and heterogeneous joint disease with complex pathogenesis. The various phenotypes associated with each patient suggest that better subgrouping of tissues associated with genotypes in different phases of osteoarthritis may provide new insights into the onset and progression of the disease. Recently, single-cell RNA sequencing was used to describe osteoarthritis pathogenesis on a high-resolution view surpassing traditional technologies. Herein, this review summarizes the microstructural changes in articular cartilage, meniscus, synovium and subchondral bone that are mainly due to crosstalk amongst chondrocytes, osteoblasts, fibroblasts and endothelial cells during osteoarthritis progression. Next, we focus on the promising targets discovered by single-cell RNA
