Abstract
Microorganisms have been linked to a variety of critical human disease, thanks to advances in sequencing technology and microbiology. The growing recognition of human microbe-disease relationships provides crucial insights into the underlying disease process from the perspective of pathogens, which is extremely useful for pathogenesis research, early diagnosis, and precision medicine and therapy. Microbe-based analysis in terms of diseases and related drug discovery can predict new connections/mechanisms and provide new concepts. These phenomena have been studied via various in-silico computational approaches. This review aims to elaborate on the computational works conducted on the microbe-disease and microbe-drug topics, discuss the computational model approaches used for predicting associations and provide comprehensive information on the related databases. Finally, we discussed potential prospects and obstacles in this field of study, while also outlining some recommendations for further enhancing predictive capabilities.
