Due to the lack of effective chemotherapy, severe cryptosporidiosis especially seen in immune-compromised host is often fetal. To explore drug seeds for the opportunistic infection, a screening method of the drug effect against Cryptosporidiumparvum in a cell culture model was successfully developed. Using the assessment procedure, anti-cryptosporidal efficacy was confirmed in a part of adenosine analogues, including anti-cancer drugs used in clinical sites.
