This narrative systematic review summarises metabolomics studies conducted in (1) individuals with subclinical AS (assessed by imaging techniques such as carotid intimal media thickness, IMT, and coronary artery calcium, CAC), (2) patients with established atherosclerotic plaques, and (3) individuals with AS risk factors. Methods: The systematic search was conducted in the PubMed database according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (i) publication date between 2009 and 2024; (ii) identification of potential biomarkers for AS in subjects with a diagnosis of AS or with one or more traits characteristic of the disease (i.e., CAC or IMT); (iii) identification of potential AS biomarkers in subjects with atherogenic clinical conditions (i.e., Down\u2019s syndrome, DS, polycystic ovarian syndrome, PCOS, and systemic lupus erythematosus, SLE); (iv) metabolomic studies; and (iv) studies in human samples. Exclusion criteria comprised the following: (i) studies on lipid metabolic diseases unrelated to AS, (ii) \u201comics\u201d results not derived from metabolomics, (iii) reviews and studies in animal models or cell cultures, and (iv) systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Of 90 eligible studies screened, 24 met the inclusion criteria. Results: Across subclinical and overt AS, consistent disturbances were observed in amino acid, lipid, and carbohydrate metabolism. Altered profiles included branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), aromatic amino acids (AACs) and derivatives (e.g., kynurenine\u2013tryptophan pathway), bile acids (BAs), androgenic steroids, short-chain fatty acids (FAs)\/ketone intermediates (e.g., acetate, 3-hydroxybutyrate, 3-HB), and Krebs cycle intermediates (e.g., citrate). Several metabolites (e.g., glutamine, lactate, 3-HB, phosphatidylcholines, PCs\/lysophosphatidylcholines, lyso-PCs) showed reproducible associations with vascular phenotypes (IMT\/CAC) and\/or clinical AS. Conclusions: The identification of low-weight metabolites altered in both subclinical and overt AS suggests their potential as candidate biomarkers for early AS diagnosis. Given the steady increase in deaths from cardiovascular disease, a manifestation of advanced AS, this finding could have significant clinical relevance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm14228028","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,14]],"date-time":"2025-11-14T16:46:22Z","timestamp":1763138782000},"page":"8028","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Metabolomics Signatures of Atherosclerosis in Cardiovascular Disease: A Narrative Systematic Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9660-9616","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Monica","family":"Pibiri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3538-0050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antonio","family":"Noto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonio","family":"Dalu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"},{"name":"Cardiovascular and Thoracic Department, Division of Cardiology, Citt\u00e0 Della Salute e Della Scienza, 10126 Torino, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7825-6319","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sandro","family":"Muntoni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-0159-8253","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Karolina Krystyna","family":"Kope\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechanical, Chemical and Materials Engineering, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-9592-1178","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Martina","family":"Spada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0606-4959","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luigi","family":"Atzori","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0750-4837","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cristina","family":"Piras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Cagliari, 09042 Cagliari, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"151","DOI":"10.1111\/pin.13202","article-title":"Atherosclerosis: Known and unknown","volume":"72","author":"Fan","year":"2022","journal-title":"Pathol.
