Squalene epoxidase (SQLE) is a pivotal enzyme in sterol biosynthesis, catalyzing the conversion of squalene to 2,3-oxidosqualene. Beyond its core role cholesterol homeostasis, SQLE implicated cancer, hypercholesterolemia, and fungal infections, positioning it as valuable therapeutic target. We conducted comprehensive literature search across primary databases gather vitro, silico, vivo evidence on SQLE. This review explores enzyme's structural functional features, including substrate specificity catalytic mechanisms, examines inhibitor interactions. Computational methods predict - dynamics, guiding drug design, while investigations clarify SQLE's metabolic disorders tumorigenesis. Challenges include resistance study discrepancies, but emerging technologies, such cryo-electron microscopy CRISPR editing, offer new avenues for deeper exploration. an underexplored yet promising target, with particular relevance oxidative stress, ferroptosis, gut microbiota research. Overcoming current barriers through advanced technologies multidisciplinary strategies could propel SQLE-targeted treatments into clinical practice, supporting precision medicine broader translational applications.
