Abstract
Advances in spatial ‘-omics’, such as transcriptomics and proteomics, have provided vital insights into cartilage microenvironments, revealing cellular diversity, zonal organization and links between cartilage structure and function. Analysing cartilage using spatial ‘-omics’ could deepen the understanding of diseases such as osteoarthritis and guide the development of targeted, disease-modifying therapies.
