MedlinePlus: Cryptosporidiosis (crypto) is an illness caused by a parasite. the parasite lives in soil, food and water. it may also be on surfaces that have been contaminated with waste. you can become infected if you swallow the parasite.
the most common symptom of crypto is watery diarrhea. other symptoms include
dehydration
weight loss
stomach cramps or pain
fever
nausea
vomiting
most people with crypto get better with no treatment, but crypto can cause serious problems in people with weak immune systems such as in people with hiv/aids. to reduce your risk of crypto, wash your hands often, avoid water that may be infected, and wash or peel fresh fruits and vegetables before eating.

MalaCards: Cryptosporidiosis, also known as cryptosporidial gastroenteritis (disorder), is related to hepatitis c and immunodeficiency. An important gene associated with Cryptosporidiosis is MBL2 (mannose-binding lectin (protein C) 2, soluble), and among its related pathways are Immune response Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands and common TLR signaling pathway leading to cell proinflammatory response and RAR-Gamma-RXR-Alpha Degradation. The drugs nitazoxanide and paromomycin sulfate and the compounds ionomycin and budesonide have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include lung, and related mouse phenotypes are hematopoietic system and immune system. Disease Ontology: A coccidiosis that involves a parasitic protozoan infection of the intestine of humans and a wide range of animals caused by cryptosporidium species, through contaminated water and food, the symptoms include watery diarrhea, dehydration, weight loss, abdominal pain, fever, nausea and vomiting. cryptosporidium infections have also been found in other digestive tract organs, the lungs, and conjunctiva. immunocompromised persons are at greater risk of developing the infection.6 CDC: Cryptosporidium is a microscopic parasite that causes the diarrheal disease cryptosporidiosis. Both the parasite and the disease are commonly known as "Crypto."2 Wikipedia: Cryptosporidiosis, also known as crypto, is a parasitic disease caused by Cryptosporidium, a protozoan...44 more... |
