    Biopsies from volunteers challenged with Cryptosporidium parvum were examined for transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1). None of the prechallenge biopsies exhibited TGF-beta. Seven of 12 volunteers with oocyst shedding expressed TGF-beta versus 2 of 13 volunteers without detected oocysts. The association of TGF-beta expression with oocyst excretion and the timing of symptoms suggests that TGF-beta mediates intestinal healing.
