<p>The overall goal of the study was to generate 3D single cell maps of healthy human knee cartilage. Articular cartilage from the weightbearing and non-weightbearing regions of the femoral condyles in healthy knees from young donors (n=12) was analyzed by bulk RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq), single nuclei RNA (snRNA-seq) and ATAC-sequencing and by spatial transcriptomic methods (GeoMx, MERFISH and Xenium). These multimodal data and additional single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data were integrated to generate a comprehensive molecular, genomic and function annotation of chondrocyte populations. Regulatory mechanisms were derived by linking motifs in expressed genes, transcription factors and chromatin organization.</p>
