Raises a question worth testing. It does not answer one.
This is a narrative review that synthesizes the emerging use of animal organoid systems as in vitro models to advance One Health objectives. The review identifies potential applications in zoonotic disease, antimicrobial resistance, and pandemic preparedness but does not report empirical data, effect sizes, or clinical validation of these models.
Narrative review. Conceptual; review addresses potential use in One Health research across human, animal, and environmental health domains.
Organoids are 3-dimensional structures that closely resemble the cellular composition, organization, and function of the organ they mimic Animal organoids are proposed for application in studying cross-species diseases, zoonotic infections, environmental pollutant and chemical biocides toxicity, antimicrobial resistance, animal breeding, and pandemic preparedness

This review outlines a methodological framework rather than clinical evidence. Clinicians and researchers should regard it as exploratory guidance on emerging in vitro tools; practical utility requires empirical validation in specific disease or resistance contexts.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no reported figures. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Emerging infectious diseases, driven by climate change, urbanization, and global wildlife trade, pose significant threats to public health, ecosystems, and biodiversity. The One Health (OH) approach, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health, is critical to address these challenges. In this context, animal organoids have emerged as innovative in vitro models that can advance OH goals. Organoids are 3-dimensional (3D) structures that closely resemble the cellular composition, organization, and function of the organ they mimic. This review outlines the steps to establish organoid systems and provides an overview of the different animal organoid types developed to date and their contribution to OH. We further explore the applications of these new approach methodologies in the context of OH in studying cross-species diseases, zoonotic infections, environmental pollutant, chemical biocides toxicity, antimicrobial resistance, animal breeding, and pandemic preparedness.
