Single-cell analysis of the somatic mutational landscape in human chondrocytes during aging and in osteoarthritis
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Abstract Somatic mutation is now recognized as a cause of multiple human diseases other than cancer. Osteoarthritis (OA), a highly prevalent age-related disease, has been associated with increased chromosomal abnormalities in articular cartilage of OA patients. Thus far no systematic attempt has been made to characterize the somatic mutational landscape of chondrocytes during normal aging and in affected cartilage of OA patients. Here we used single-cell whole genome sequencing to quantitatively analyze single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and small insertions and deletions (InDels) in 100 single chondrocytes isolated from the cartilage of hip femoral heads of 17 subjects aged from 26 to 90 years, including 9 OA patients and 8 non-OA donors. Both SNVs and InDels were found to accumulate with age in chondrocytes with a clock-like mutational signature. Surprisingly, the age-related accumulation rate of these mutations was found to be lower in OA chondrocytes compared with chondrocytes from non-OA control subjects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
