Objective: The nucleus pulposus (NP) comprises notochordal NP cells (NCs) and chondrocyte-like NP cells (CLCs). Although morphological similarities between CLCs and chondrocytes have been reported, interactions between CLCs and NCs remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to clarify regulatory mechanisms of cells in the NP and chondrocytes. Design: We performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of the articular cartilage (AC) and NP of three-year-old cynomolgus monkeys in which NCs were present. We then performed immunohistochemical analysis of NP and distal femur. We added sonic hedgehog (SHH) to primary chondrocyte culture. Results: The scRNA-seq analysis revealed that CLCs and some articular chondrocytes had similar gene expression profiles, particularly related to GLI1, the nuclear mediator of the hedgehog pathway. In the NP, cell–cell interaction analysis revealed SHH expression in NCs, resulting in hedgehog signaling to CLCs. In contrast, no hedgehog ligands were expressed by chondrocytes in AC samples. Immunohistochemical analysis of the distal end of femur indicated that SHH and Indian hedgehog (IHH) were expressed around the subchondral bone that was excluded from our scRNA-seq sample. scRNA-seq data analysis and treatment of primary chondrocytes with SHH revealed that hedgehog proteins mediated an increase in hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) levels. Conclusion: CLCs and some articular chondrocytes have similar transcriptional profiles, regulated by paracrine hedgehog proteins secreted from NCs in the NP and from the subchondral bone in the AC to promote the HIF-1α pathway.
