In this study, we used the diet-induced obesity (DIO) mouse model and two models of acute pulmonary infection, Francisella tularensis subspecies tularensis strain SchuS4 and SARS-CoV-2, to uncover the contribution of obesity in bacterial and viral disease. Whereas DIO mice were more resistant to infection with SchuS4, DIO animals were more susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection compared with regular weight mice. In both models, neither survival nor morbidity correlated with differences in pathogen load, overall cellularity, or influx of inflammatory cells in target organs of DIO and regular weight animals. Increased susceptibility was also not associated with exacerbated production of cytokines and chemokines in either model. Rather, we observed pathogen-specific dysregulation of the host lipidome that was associated with vulnerability to infection. Inhibition of specific pathways required for generation of lipid mediators reversed resistance to both bacterial and viral infection. Taken together, our data demonstrate disparity among obese individuals for control of lethal bacterial and viral infection and suggest that dysregulation of the host lipidome contributes to increased susceptibility to viral infection in the obese host.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.2200162","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]],"date-time":"2022-10-20T17:48:44Z","timestamp":1666288124000},"page":"1323-1334","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Contribution of Lipid Mediators in Divergent Outcomes following Acute Bacterial and Viral Lung Infections in the Obese Host"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"209","author":[{"given":"Benjamin","family":"Schwarz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Immunity to Pulmonary Pathogens Section, Laboratory of Bacteriology, Rocky Mountain Laboratories, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Hamilton, MT"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lydia M","family":"Roberts","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Immunity to Pulmonary Pathogens Section, Laboratory of Bacteriology, Rocky Mountain Laboratories, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Hamilton, MT"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric","family":"Bohrnsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Immunity to Pulmonary Pathogens Section, Laboratory of Bacteriology, Rocky Mountain Laboratories, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Hamilton, MT"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Forrest","family":"Jessop","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Immunity to Pulmonary Pathogens Section, Laboratory of Bacteriology, Rocky Mountain Laboratories, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Hamilton, MT"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tara D","family":"Wehrly","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Immunity to Pulmonary Pathogens Section, Laboratory of Bacteriology, Rocky Mountain Laboratories, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Hamilton, MT"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8907-8821","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carl","family":"Shaia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rocky Mountain Veterinary Branch, Rocky Mountain Laboratories, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Hamilton, MT"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Catharine M","family":"Bosio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Immunity to Pulmonary Pathogens Section, Laboratory of Bacteriology, Rocky Mountain Laboratories, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Hamilton, MT"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025021008320868100_r1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"288","DOI":"10.1038\/s41574-019-0176-8","article-title":"Obesity: global epidemiology and pathogenesis","volume":"15","author":"Bl\u00fcher","year":"2019","journal-title":"Nat.
