Interplay Between Infectious Diseases and the Endocrine System: An Overview and Clinical Insights

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
Infectious diseases can disrupt endocrine homeostasis through direct cytopathic injury, autoimmune dysregulation, or pathogen‐derived hormone‐like effects. Viruses and bacteria are the most frequent agents, whereas fungi and parasites contribute less commonly, even remaining clinically relevant, especially in the immunocompromised population.
