Paromomycin (Aminosidine) is an orally active broad-spectrum aminoglycoside aminocyclitol. Paromomycin is produced by Streptomyces riomosus var. Paromomycinus. Paromomycin binding induces local conformational changes in the 16S rRNA A-site. Paromomycin exhibits inhibitory activity against C. parvum. Paromomycin can be used in research related to leishmaniasis, amoebiasis and cryptosporidiosis.

In Vitro

Paromomycin inhibits Cryptosporidium parvum infection of the differentiated human enterocyte cell line HT29.74[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Paromomycin (1-2 g/kg/day; p.o.; 10 consecutive days) reduces C. parvum infection in immunosuppressed adult C57BL/6N mice, as demonstrated by significant reductions in fecal oocyst shedding (P < 0.01), parasite colonization (P < 0.05), and villus atrophy (P < 0.05) in the ilea and terminal ilea[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: C57BL/6N (female, 6 weeks old, 14-16 g, immunosuppressed with dexamethasone phosphate, infected with Cryptosporidium parvum)[3]
Dosage: 0.25 g/kg/day; 0.5 g/kg/day; 1 g/kg/day; 2 g/kg/day
Administration: p.o.; once daily; 10 consecutive days
Result: Significantly reduced fecal oocyst shedding (P < 0.01) at 1 g/kg/day and 2 g/kg/day, with no rebound after initial reduction.
Significantly lowered parasite colonization in ilea (0.02 ± 0.02 C.
parvum/epithelial cell at 1 g/kg/day; 0 C.
parvum/epithelial cell at 2 g/kg/day) and terminal ilea (0.15 ± 0.08 C.
parvum/epithelial cell at 1 g/kg/day; 0.03 ± 0.03 C.
parvum/epithelial cell at 2 g/kg/day) compared to placebo controls (P < 0.05).
Increased villus-to-crypt (V/C) ratios in ilea (1.99 ± 0.08 at 1 g/kg/day; 1.98 ± 0.02 at 2 g/kg/day) and terminal ilea (1.81 ± 0.11 at 1 g/kg/day; 1.91 ± 0.07 at 2 g/kg/day) compared to placebo controls (P < 0.05), indicating reduced villus atrophy.
Reduced oocyst shedding within 24 hours at 0.25 g/kg/day and 0.5 g/kg/day, but rebound occurred starting on day 14 post-infection with shedding exceeding pretreatment levels.
Showed no significant therapeutic benefit for parasite colonization or villus atrophy relative to placebo controls at 0.25 g/kg/day and 0.5 g/kg/day.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
