Article Synopsis
  • Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic joint disorder, characterized by various degenerative changes, but the biological mechanisms behind it remain unclear.
  • Researchers analyzed gene expression data from synovial tissues to identify key biomarkers and immune cell involvement in OA, finding 18 important differentially expressed genes (DEGs).
  • The study highlights specific signaling pathways related to these DEGs and suggests that the hub gene ZNF160 may play a significant role in immune cell activity, offering potential new directions for OA diagnosis and treatment.
