Toxoplasmosis is a zoonosis caused by Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii). The current treatment for toxoplasmosis remains constrained due to the absence of pharmaceutical interventions. Thus, the pursuit of more efficient targets is of great importance. Lipid metabolism in T. gondii, including fatty acid metabolism, phospholipid metabolism, and neutral lipid metabolism, assumes a crucial function in T. gondii because those pathways are largely involved in the formation of the membranous structure and cellular processes such as division, invasion, egress, replication, and apoptosis. The inhibitors of T. gondii's lipid metabolism can directly lead to the disturbance of various lipid component levels and serious destruction of membrane structure, ultimately leading to the death of the parasites. In this review, the specific lipid metabolism pathways, correlative enzymes, and inhibitors of lipid metabolism of T. gondii are elaborated in detail to generate novel ideas for the development of anti-T. gondii drugs that target the parasites' lipid metabolism.
弓形虫病是一种由刚地弓形虫(Toxoplasma gondii)引起的人畜共患病。由于缺乏药物干预,目前对弓形虫病的治疗仍然受到限制。因此,寻找更有效的靶点非常重要。刚地弓形虫的脂质代谢,包括脂肪酸代谢、磷脂代谢和中性脂质代谢,在刚地弓形虫中起着至关重要的作用,因为这些途径在很大程度上参与了膜结构的形成和细胞分裂、入侵、出芽、复制和凋亡等过程。刚地弓形虫脂质代谢的抑制剂可直接导致各种脂质成分水平的紊乱和膜结构的严重破坏,最终导致寄生虫死亡。在这篇综述中,详细阐述了刚地弓形虫的特定脂质代谢途径、相关酶和脂质代谢抑制剂,为开发针对寄生虫脂质代谢的抗弓形虫药物提供了新的思路。
