This study analysed the intracellular delivery capacity of insect derived pyrrhocoricin with a peptide cargo in Cryptosporidium parvum in vitro using fluorescence microscopy. Results revealed that pyrrhocoricin was capable of acting as a delivery vehicle in transducing peptides across the parasite cell membrane for multiple life-cycle stages. The successful transduction may aid in target validation and the delivery of future peptide-based drugs against this important human pathogen.
