This study has focused on anti-Toxoplasma gondii activity of curcumin.
In this systematic review, anti-parasitic activity of Curcuma longa on Toxoplasma gondii was assessed. Therefore, several databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase and Google Scholar, were searched from 2010 to 2020.
Of the 2200 papers retrieved between 2010 and 2020, six articles were reliable and were scrutinized. In 2 in vitro studies, the most used strain was the RH strain of Toxoplasma gondii, whereas among 4 in vivo studies, RH strain was found in 2 (50%) studies, Me49 strain in 1(25%) study, and RH and Me49 strain in 1 (25%) study. In four in vivo studies, the most used animal model was BALB/c, and Swiss albino was found in 1 study (25%) and Albino rats in 1 study (25%).
Curcumin and nanoparticles formulated with curcumin are new and useful agents for the treatment of parasitic diseases and reduction of drug resistance. The success of this therapeutic approach stems from the specific action of Curcuma longa against parasites and pathogens.
本研究集中于姜黄素的抗弓形虫活性。
在本系统评价中,评估了姜黄对弓形虫的抗寄生虫活性。因此,从 2010 年到 2020 年,我们在几个数据库中进行了搜索,包括 PubMed、Scopus、Web of Science、Embase 和 Google Scholar。
在 2010 年至 2020 年期间检索到的 2200 篇论文中,有 6 篇是可靠的,并进行了仔细审查。在 2 项体外研究中,最常使用的菌株是弓形虫 RH 株,而在 4 项体内研究中,RH 株在 2 项研究中(50%),Me49 株在 1 项研究中(25%),RH 和 Me49 株在 1 项研究中(25%)。在 4 项体内研究中,最常用的动物模型是 BALB/c,1 项研究(25%)中使用了瑞士白化病,1 项研究(25%)中使用了白化病大鼠。
姜黄素和用姜黄素制成的纳米粒子是治疗寄生虫病和减少耐药性的新的有用药物。这种治疗方法的成功源于姜黄对寄生虫和病原体的特异性作用。
