This special issue on Metabolome–Microbiome in Health and Diseases for One Health aims to bring together cutting-edge research and integrative reviews at the intersection of metabolomics, microbiome science, and computational biology to advance the One Health agenda. This collection emphasizes system-level understanding of how host, microbial, and environmental metabolomes interact to influence health, disease, and sustainability across humans, animals, and ecosystems. The goal is to highlight how multi-omics integration and AI-enabled analytics can unravel metabolic networks and microbial functions underlying chronic diseases, infectious diseases, and environmental health risks – bridging gaps between human, animal, and environmental health systems.

Scope of the Special Issue:

This collection welcomes original research, reviews, methods papers, and data resource articles that explore:

Host–microbiome metabolic pathways influencing disease etiology
Systems-level integration of metabolomics, metagenomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics
Computational modeling of microbial communities and metabolic networks
Translational studies linking metabolic profiles to clinical phenotypes
Environmental microbiome–metabolome research relevant to the One Health framework.

Possible research topics include but are not limited to:

Microbiome–Metabolome Crosstalk
Metabolomics for One Health
Computational and Structural Biology Approaches
Precision Medicine and Phenomics Applications
Technological and Methodological Innovations

Submission deadline: 31 May 2026

We encourage researchers, engineers, scientists, and students in related fields to submit their work for consideration in this special issue. All manuscripts will receive expedited handling, and the accepted version will appear online within one week. Please note that every accepted paper is subjected to a processing fee as per Elsevier’s open access journal policies.
