Integrative Multi-Omics Analysis of Host Transcriptomics and Gut Microbiome Data


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

MultiOmicsBridge provides an end-to-end, reproducible computational framework for integrative analysis of paired host transcriptomics (bulk RNA-seq) and gut microbiome (16S rRNA or shotgun metagenomics) data. The package addresses the lack of a unified Bioconductor workflow for this pairing by implementing five modules: (1) data harmonization and normalization with CLR transformation for microbiome compositional data and TMM/voom for RNA-seq; (2) joint dimensionality reduction via sparse multi-block PLS-DA (DIABLO); (3) multi-omics biomarker discovery through cross-omics correlation networks and sparse feature loadings; (4) integrated diagnostic classification comparing host-only, microbiome-only, and joint Random Forest models with stratified cross-validation; and (5) publication-quality visualization of integration results, biomarker networks, classifier comparisons, and feature flow diagrams. All functions operate natively on SummarizedExperiment and MultiAssayExperiment objects and return a structured MOBResult S4 object. The package is validated on inflammatory bowel disease multi-omics data and designed with complex disease contexts (tuberculosis, HIV, EED) in mind.
