  "summary": "Objective Single-cell RNA sequencing has transformed our understanding of cellular heterogeneity within osteoarthritic (OA) joint tissues, yet transcript abundance provides only an indirect measure of cellular phenotype and function. Recent advances in mass spectrometry now enable proteins to be measured directly at single-cell resolution. Here, we applied single-cell proteomics (SCP) to primary…",
