Applications of genome-scale metabolic models to the study of human diseases: A systematic review
Background and Objectives:
Genome-scale metabolic networks (GEMs) represent a valuable modeling and computational tool in the broad field of systems biology. Their ability to integrate constraints and high-throughput biological data enables the study of intricate metabolic aspects and processes of different cell types and conditions. The past decade has witnessed an increasing number and variety of applications of GEMs for the study of human diseases, along with a huge effort aimed at the reconstruction, integration and analysis of a high number of organisms. This paper presents a systematic review of the scientific literature, to pursue several important questions about the application of constraint-based modeling in the investigation of human diseases. Hopefully, this paper will provide a useful reference for researchers interested in the application of modeling and computational tools for the investigation of metabolic-related human diseases.
Methods:
This systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Elsevier Scopus®, National Library of Medicine PubMed® and Clarivate Web of Science™ databases were enquired, resulting in 566 scientific articles. After applying exclusion and eligibility criteria, a total of 169 papers were selected and individually examined.
Results:
The reviewed papers offer a thorough and up-to-date picture of the latest modeling and computational approaches, based on genome-scale metabolic models, that can be leveraged for the investigation of a large variety of human diseases. The numerous studies have been categorized according to the clinical research area involved in the examined disease. Furthermore, the paper discusses the most typical approaches employed to derive clinically-relevant information using the computational models.
Conclusions:
The number of scientific papers, utilizing GEM-based approaches for the investigation of human diseases, suggests an increasing interest in these types of approaches; hopefully, the present review will represent a useful reference for scientists interested in applying computational modeling approaches to investigate the aetiopathology of human diseases; we also hope that this work will foster the development of novel applications and methods for the discovery of clinically-relevant insights on metabolic-related diseases.
