Kelly Wentworth Edward HsiaoKelly Wentworth and Edward Hsiao recently published in the American Journal of Human Genetics, where they applied single-cell RNA sequencing to human bone samples to study fibrous dysplasia, a genetic mosaic disease that causes severe bone malformations. UCSF is among a small number of centers nationwide with expertise in this condition.

Their paper, Single-cell analysis of human fibrous dysplasia bone reveals a fibrotic transcriptome and GNAS variants in endothelial, perivascular, and stromal cells, highlights the cellular mechanisms underlying FD.
