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.

Insights Into the Susceptibility of Fungal Infection and STAT3 Genetic Mutations
Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a key transcription factor that regulates a spectrum of genes and signalling pathways critical for the antifungal immune response. Mutations in the STAT3 gene confer susceptibility to severe and recurrent fungal infections, predominantly via disruption of interleukin‐17 (IL‐17 ...
