摘　　要：Cryptosporidium is an emerging single-cell zoonotic pathogen.By invading human and animal small intestinal epithelial cells,the host produces a variety of clinical symptoms,mainly diarrhea.Spores of Cryptosporidium can be transmitted through water-borne,food-borne,and mutual transmission between hosts,which has important public health significance.Studies have shown that non-human primates can be infected with multiple Cryptosporidium genotypes.Moreover,this species has a high genetic similarity with humans,so it needs to be taken seriously.This article reviews the infection rates,genotypes,and zoonotic risk of Cryptosporidium in non-human primates.
