Metabolite Identification
Common NameMiltefosine
DescriptionMiltefosine, also known as impavido, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phosphocholines. Phosphocholines are compounds containing a [2-(trimethylazaniumyl)ethoxy]phosphonic acid or derivative. Miltefosine is a drug which is used for the treatment of mucosal (caused by leishmania braziliensis), cutaneous (caused by l. braziliensis, l. guyanensis, and l. panamensis), and visceral leishmaniasis (caused by l. donovani). in comparing leishmania drug susceptibility, it has been found that l. donovani is the most susceptible to miltefosine while l. major is the least susceptible. off-label use includes treatment of free-living amebae (fla) infections (unlabeled use; cdc, 2013). . Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Miltefosine. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Miltefosine is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Miltefosine is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.

Enzymes

General function:
Not Available
Specific function:
Catalyzes the ATP-dependent transport of phospholipids such as phosphatidylcholine and phosphoglycerol from the cytoplasm into the lumen side of lamellar bodies, in turn participates in the lamellar bodies biogenesis and homeostasis of pulmonary surfactant (PubMed:16959783, PubMed:17574245, PubMed:28887056, PubMed:31473345, PubMed:27177387). Transports preferentially phosphatidylcholine containing short acyl chains (PubMed:27177387). In addition plays a role as an efflux transporter of miltefosine across macrophage membranes and free cholesterol (FC) through intralumenal vesicles by removing FC from the cell as a component of surfactant and protects cells from free cholesterol toxicity (PubMed:26903515, PubMed:25817392, PubMed:27177387).
