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.

Mast Cells Control the Bacterial Burden and Grain Formation in Murine Experimental Actinomycetoma Induced by Nocardia brasiliensis

Pathogens and Immunity
Background: The immunopathogenesis of actinomycetoma, a chronic granulomatous infection caused primarily by Nocardia brasiliensis, involves poorly defined mechanisms sustaining its characteristic cyclical inflammation.

Plant‐Based Mycetoma Inhibitors Targeting the 50S Ribosomal Protein of Nocardia brasiliensis: In Silico Approach

ChemistrySelect, Volume 10, Issue 21, June 4, 2025.
In‐silico drug discovery pipeline for Mycetoma caused by Nocardia brasiliensis. A library of 1034 phytocompounds was screened to identify potent inhibitors, with Parviflorone F showing strong binding and stability against the 50S ribosomal unit. Molecular dynamics confirmed its inhibitory potential, offering a promising therapeutic candidate.

Characterization and structural study of a novel β‐N‐acetylgalactosaminidase from Niabella aurantiaca

The FEBS Journal, Volume 291, Issue 7, Page 1439-1456, April 2024.
N‐acetyl‐D‐galactosamine (GalNAc) is a rare, albeit crucial amino‐sugar involved in cellular interactions. Only three β‐N‐acetylgalactosaminidases are listed in the Carbohydrate Active enzymes (CAZy) database, all in family GH123. This study reports the characterization of a fourth enzyme, NaNga, which considerably expands this family and helps define ...

Primary cutaneous nocardiosis in an immunocompetent host

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 2, February 2024.
Clinical manifestations of primary cutaneous nocardiosis. Key Clinical Message Nocardiosis is a rare opportunistic infection that is classically observed in immunocompromised patients but can also affect immunocompetent individuals. It tends to involve the lung, central nervous system, and skin and is often misdiagnosed.

Nocardia brasiliensis: mycetoma induction and growth cycle [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1982
The capacity of Nocardia brasiliensis to induce mycetoma in BALB/c mice in the absence of adjuvants was studied. Whether the virulence of N. brasiliensis varied in the different phases of its growth cycle was also determined. The results showed that N.

[Sporotrichoid nocardiosis by Nocardia brasiliensis].

Revista Argentina de microbiologia, 2021
Nocardia brasiliensis is a gram-positive, branched, aerobic, acid-resistant, rod-shaped bacillus that inhabits in soil, rotten organic matter and waters. Cutaneous nocardiosis in immunocompetent individuals can manifest in three different forms: actinomycetoma, superficial skin infection or lymphocutaneous infection. A case of an 85-year-old woman with
