“…Several targets have been proposed to underlie the anti- T. gondii activity of plant-derived natural products. These include interference of the parasite DNA synthesis, RNA degradation, mitochondrial function, lipid metabolism, glyoxalase pathway, calcium homeostasis, cytoskeleton integrity, and locomotion ( Doggett et al., 2012 ; Nagamune et al., 2007 ; De Pablos et al., 2010 ; Goo et al., 2015 ; Alday et al., 2017 ; Si et al., 2018 ; McConnell et al., 2018 ; Luan et al., 2019 ; Leesombun et al., 2020 ; Deng et al., 2020 ). Pro-oxidant effect to induce oxidative stress and DNA damage in the parasite has also been suggested ( Gopalakrishnan and Kumar, 2015 ; Adeyemi et al., 2020 ).…”
