Theoretical model linking SARS-CoV-2 to COVID-19-mediated morbidity and mortality via PPARα. Viral infection may alter lipid metabolism and endothelial function contributing to inflammation and untoward systemic consequences. Exercise may have a favorable effect PPARα and is known to be anti-inflammatory and improve endothelial function.
