Aims

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease. The osteocyte transcriptome is highly relevant to osteocyte biology. This study aimed to explore the osteocyte transcriptome in subchondral bone affected by OA.

Methods

Gene expression profiles of OA subchondral bone were used to identify disease-relevant genes and signalling pathways. RNA-sequencing data of a bone loading model were used to identify the loading-responsive gene set. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was employed to develop the osteocyte mechanics-responsive gene signature.
