PlasTeX is a Python package that can interpret LaTeX files. Since it does not include a PDF renderer, the easiest way to render to PDF is probably via the DocBook renderer. I don't think there are any DocBook renderers for Python though.

A pure-python solution would be to write a plasTeX (or DocBook) frontend for RinohType (I'm the author of RinohType).
