Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is the continuation of our previous special issue “Microbiome in Ecosystem” and “Microbiome in Ecosystem 2.0”.

The microbiome consists of complex microbes and related molecules. Recently, the microbiome has been applied to various fields in order to develop a novel way for maintaining homeostasis or the balance of ecosystems. The understanding of the microbiome’s interaction with its habitats including its host is still limited. This Special Issue is devoted to publishing original research and review articles on various aspects of the microbiome in ecosystems. Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to, novel methods for understanding the microbiome, the role of the microbiome in ecosystems, microbe–microbe interactions in the microbiome, microbe–host interactions, and microbe–environment interactions in various ecosystems.

Gout, recognized as the most common form of inflammatory arthritis, arises from the accumulation of uric acid crystals, leading to intense pain, particularly in the big toe. This condition has traditionally been associated with the overproduction or reduced clearance of uric acid. Recent studies, however, have underscored the significant role of the gut microbiota in uric acid metabolism, impacting both its production and elimination. This emerging understanding suggests that maintaining gut health could offer innovative approaches to treating gout, complementing traditional dietary and pharmacological interventions. It highlights the potential of probiotics or microbiome-based therapies, indicating a future where treatments are tailored to an individual’s microbiome. This offers a fresh perspective on gout management and underscores the broader influence of the microbiota on health and disease. Full article
