Purpose: Clinical trials are advancing the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), an endocrine disorder affecting 8-13% of women. Lifestyle interventions, including nutritional plans, physical activity, and stress management, can improve reproductive hormones and metabolic health. Novel pharmacotherapies targeting hormonal, metabolic, and reproductive abnormalities are being explored for individualized treatment.

Sterols are produced via complex, multistep biosynthetic pathways involving similar enzymatic conversions in plants, animals and fungi, yielding a variety of sterol metabolites with slightly different chemical properties to exert diverse and specific functions. A tremendously diverse landscape of sterols, and sterol-derived compounds, can be found across the plant kingdom, determining a wide spectrum of functions. Resolving the underlying biosynthetic pathways is thus instrumental to understanding the function and use of these molecules.

The balance between lipid synthesis and lipid catabolism is critical to maintain energy homeostasis. Lipophagy and lipolysis are two important pathways for lipid selective catabolism. Defects in lipophagy and lipolysis are linked to lipid metabolic diseases.

Autophagy is a conserved eukaryotic cellular clearance and recycling process through the lysosome-mediated degradation of damaged organelles and protein aggregates to maintain homeostasis. Impairment of the autophagy-lysosomal pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Transcription factor EB (TFEB) is a master regulator of autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine disorder in women, often leading to infertility due to anovulation. Recent advances suggest that endometrial stem cells (EnSCs) hold considerable promise for tissue regeneration, which could be pivotal in treating PCOS. To enhance the survival and stabilization of EnSCs within the ovary, the EnSCs were encapsulated in an injectable alginate/gelatin hydrogel (SC-H), which has excellent biocompatibility to support the survival of EnSCs.
