Cryptosporidium muris is a species of coccidium, first isolated from the gastric glands of the common mouse. [1] Cryptosporidium does originate in common mice, specifically laboratory mice. However, it also has infected cows, dogs, cats, rats, rabbits, lambs, and …

Ten C. muris cases have been reported, primarily in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -positive patients with diarrhea. However, asymptomatic cases were reported in two HIV-negative children, and in another case, age and immune status were not described. This study examines the infectivity of C. muris in six healthy adults.

Cryptosporidium can infect a wide range of vertebrate hosts, including birds, reptiles, and mammals. Many species and genotypes are host-adapted, but human cases caused by species and genotypes that are pathogens in other mammals or animals have been reported (e.g. C. …

Cryptosporidium muris, predominantly a rodent species of Cryptosporidium, is not normally considered a human pathogen. Recently, isolated human infections have been reported from Indonesia, Thailand, France, and Kenya. We report the first case of C. muris in a human in the Western Hemisphere.

Although Cryptosporidium parvum and C. hominis cause the majority of human cryptosporidiosis cases, other Cryptosporidium species are also capable of infecting humans, particularly when individuals are immunocompromised. Ten C. muris cases have been reported, primarily in human immunodeficiency viru …

Cryptosporidium muris oocysts are larger than C. parvum (7.4×5.6 μ m vs 5.0×4.5 μ m) and, unlike C. parvum which develops mostly in the small intestine, C. muris mainly colonises the stomach [1]. Cryptosporidium muris has been described in voles (Microtus sp.), mice (M. musculus) and rats (Rattus sp.) (cf. [1]).

隐孢子虫病（cryptosporidiosis）是由隐孢子虫（Cryptosporidium spp.）引起的一种人兽共患寄生虫病，主要症状是腹泻。 由于免疫缺陷者易于罹患该病，因而从20世纪80年代起随着艾滋病（AIDS）的发现和流行，大大推动了其研究进展。

Cryptosporidium muris is a sporozoan that adheres to the gastric mucosa. It is uncommon in laboratory mice and is only slightly pathogenic. Cryptosporidium parvum inhabits the small intestine and is usually nonpathogenic in immunocompetent and athymic mice (Ozkul and Aydin, 1994; Taylor et al., 1999). Athymic mice may develop cholangitis and ...

2013年10月16日 · Cryptosporidium andersoni and Cryptosporidium muris infections have been found in the mice and/or cattle. The oocysts of C. andersoni and C. muris have been sporadically detected in human feces, but the infectious capacity and features have been unknown, because of the scarcity of reports involving human infections.

Coinciding with the hundredth anniversary of the discovery of C. muris, the partial sequencing of the C. muris genome has been undertaken. The sequence from a species belonging to the gastric Cryptosporidium group, which has extensively diverged from the intestinal species, will enable comparative genome analyses between the three sequenced ...
