The World Health Organization reported in 2022 that 2.5 billion adults were overweight, with 890 million classified as obese, emphasizing the urgent need for effective interventions. A critical aspect of obesity's pathophysiology is meta-inflammation-a chronic, systemic low-grade inflammatory state driven by excess adipose tissue, which disrupts metabolic homeostasis. This review examines the role of autolysosomal dysfunction in obesity-related metabolic disorders, exploring its impact across multiple metabolic organs and evaluating potential therapeutic strategies that target autophagy and lysosomal function.</p><p><strong>Recent findings: </strong>Emerging research highlights the importance of autophagy in maintaining cellular homeostasis and metabolic balance. Obesity-induced lysosomal dysfunction impairs the autophagic degradation process, contributing to the accumulation of damaged organelles and toxic aggregates, exacerbating insulin resistance, lipotoxicity, and chronic inflammation. Studies have identified autophagic defects in key metabolic tissues, including adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, liver, pancreas, kidney, heart, and brain, linking autophagy dysregulation to the progression of metabolic diseases. Preclinical investigations suggest that pharmacological and nutritional interventions-such as AMPK activation, caloric restriction mimetics, and lysosomal-targeting compounds-can restore autophagic function and improve metabolic outcomes in obesity models. Autolysosomal dysfunction is a pivotal contributor to obesity-associated metabolic disorders , influencing systemic inflammation and metabolic dysfunction. Restoring autophagy and lysosomal function holds promise as a therapeutic strategy to mitigate obesity-driven pathologies.

Recent studies indicate hormonal disruptions, metabolic syndrome, and epigenetic modifications as central mechanisms linking obesity to infertility and adverse pregnancy results. A systematic search adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines included 35 studies, focusing on obesity-related reproductive outcomes. The review highlights that obesity disrupts hormonal balance, including reductions in sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and testosterone levels, alongside increased insulin resistance and chronic inflammation. These mechanisms impair ovarian function, endometrial receptivity, and sperm quality, resulting in prolonged time-to-pregnancy (TTP), reduced ART success rates, and increased miscarriage risk. During pregnancy, maternal obesity elevates risks of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), preeclampsia, and cesarean delivery while contributing to neonatal complications, such as macrosomia and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admissions. The findings emphasize the dual impact of maternal and paternal obesity on offspring health, particularly through epigenetic modifications leading to intergenerational metabolic dysfunction. This review underscores the necessity of preconception weight management, individualized ART protocols, and tailored antenatal care to mitigate obesity's adverse effects on reproductive outcomes. Future research should focus on understanding male infertility mechanisms, optimizing ART interventions for individuals with obesity, and conducting longitudinal studies on the intergenerational impacts of obesity on reproductive health.
