Popis: Background: Obesity and diabetes are associated with elevated free fatty acids like palmitic acid (PA), which promote chronic inflammation and impaired inflammation resolution associated with cardiometabolic disorders. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in inflammatory processes; however, their roles in PA-regulated inflammation and resolution are unclear. Methods: We performed RNA-sequencing analysis to identify PA-regulated coding genes and novel lncRNAs in CD14 + monocytes from healthy volunteers. We investigated the regulation and function of an uncharacterized PA-induced lncRNA PARAIL (PA- r egulated a nti- i nflammatory l ncRNA). We examined its role in inflammation resolution by employing knockdown and overexpression strategies in human and mouse macrophages. We also used RNA pulldown coupled with mass spectrometry to identify PARAIL interacting nuclear proteins and their mechanistic involvement in PARAIL functions in human macrophages. Results: Treatment of human CD14 + monocytes with PA-induced several lncRNAs and genes associated with inflammatory phenotype. PA strongly induced lncRNA PARAIL expressed near RIPK2 . PARAIL was also induced by cytokines and infectious agents in human monocytes/macrophages and was regulated by NF-κB (nuclear factor-kappa B). Time course studies showed PARAIL was induced during inflammation resolution phase in PA-treated macrophages. PARAIL knockdown with antisense oligonucleotides upregulated key inflammatory genes and vice versa with PARAIL overexpression. We found that PARAIL interacts with ELAVL1 (ELAV-like RNA-binding protein 1) protein via AREs (AU-rich elements). ELAVL1 knockdown inhibited the anti-inflammatory functions of PARAIL . Moreover, PARAIL knockdown increased cytosolic localization of ELAVL1 and increased the stability of ARE-containing inflammatory genes. Mouse orthologous Parail was downregulated in macrophages from mice with diabetes and atherosclerosis. Parail overexpression attenuated proinflammatory genes in mouse macrophages. Conclusions: Upregulation of PARAIL under acute inflammatory conditions contributes to proresolution mechanisms via PARAIL -ELAVL1 interactions. Conversely, PARAIL downregulation in cardiometabolic diseases enhances ELAVL1 function and impairs inflammation resolution to further augment inflammation. Thus, inflammation-resolving lncRNAs like PARAIL represent novel targets to combat inflammatory cardiometabolic diseases.
