Multilocus Sequence Typing helps understand the genetic diversity of Cryptosporidium hominis and Cryptosporidium parvum isolated from Colombian patients [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2022 Multilocus Sequence Typing has become a useful tool for the study of the genetic diversity and population structure of different organisms. In this study, a MLST approach with seven loci (CP47, MS5, MS9, MSC6-7, TP14, and gp60) was used to analyze the ...

Common occurrence of Cryptosporidium hominis in asymptomatic and symptomatic calves in France [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018 BackgroundCryptosporidium spp. infections are the most frequent parasitic cause of diarrhea in humans and cattle. However, asymptomatic cases are less often documented than symptomatic cases or cases with experimentally infected animals. Cryptosporidium (

Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium hominis subtypes in crab-eating macaques [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2019 Background Non-human primates are often infected with human-pathogenic Cryptosporidium hominis subtypes, but rarely with Cryptosporidium parvum. In this study, 1452 fecal specimens were collected from farmed crab-eating macaques (Macaca fascicularis) in ...

Cultivation, cryopreservation, and transcriptomic studies of host-adapted Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium hominis using enteroids [PDF]
iScienceSummary: Cryptosporidium hominis and Cryptosporidium parvum are major causes of severe diarrhea. Comparative studies of them are hampered by the lack of effective cultivation and cryopreservation methods, especially for C. hominis.

Prevalence, Genetic Diversity, and Risk Factors of <i>Cryptosporidium</i> spp. in HIV/AIDS Patients: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (2017-2025). [PDF]
Can J Infect Dis Med MicrobiolBackground Cryptosporidium spp. is a major opportunistic pathogens in HIV/AIDS patients, contributing substantially to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite advances in HIV/AIDS management, the global burden, genetic diversity, and risk factors of cryptosporidiosis in this high‐risk group remain incompletely understood.

Prevalence and Molecular Characterization of <i>Cryptosporidium</i> Species in Patients With Hematologic Malignancies in Eastern Iran. [PDF]
Int J MicrobiolIntroduction Cryptosporidium is a leading protozoan cause of diarrheal disease globally, posing a significant threat to immunocompromised individuals, including patients with hematologic malignancies. This study was aimed at finding out how common Cryptosporidium is, what species and genotypes are present, and what risk factors are linked to patients ...

Multicopy subtelomeric genes underlie animal infectivity of divergent Cryptosporidium hominis subtypes [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe anthroponotic Cryptosporidium hominis differs from the zoonotic C. parvum in its lack of infectivity to animals, but several divergent subtypes have recently been found in nonhuman primates and equines. Here, we sequence 17 animal C. hominis isolates
