Palmitic acid induced lncRNA PARAIL regulates inflammation via interaction with RNA-binding protein HuR in monocytes and macrophages

ABSTRACT: 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 non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in inflammatory processes, however, their roles in PA-regulated inflammation and resolution are unclear. METHODS: We performed RNA-seq 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-regulated anti-inflammatory lncRNA). We examined its role in inflammation resolution employing knockdown and overexpression strategies in human and mouse macrophages. We also used RNA-pulldown coupled to 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-kB. Time course studies showed PARAIL was induced during inflammation resolution phase in PA treated macrophages. Knockdown of PARAIL with antisense oligonucleotides upregulated key inflammatory genes and vice versa with PARAIL overexpression. We found that PARAIL interacts with Human Antigen R (HuR) protein via AU-rich elements (AREs). HuR knockdown inhibited the anti-inflammatory functions of PARAIL. Moreover, PARAIL knockdown increased cytosolic localization of HuR and increased the stability of ARE-containing inflammatory mRNAs. Mouse orthologous Parail was downregulated in macrophages from mice with diabetes and atherosclerosis. Parail overexpression attenuated pro-inflammatory genes in mouse macrophages. CONCLUSIONS: Upregulation of PARAIL under acute inflammatory conditions contributes to pro-resolution mechanisms via PARAIL-HuR interactions. Conversely, PARAIL downregulation in cardiometabolic diseases enhances HuR function and impairs inflammation resolution to further augment inflammation. Thus, inflammation-resolving lncRNAs like PARAIL represent novel tools to combat inflammatory cardiometabolic diseases.

Project description:Dunster2014 - WBC Interactions (Model1) This is a sub-model of a three-step inflammatory response modelling study. The model includes distinct populations of white blood cells namely, macrophages and active and apoptotic neutrophil populations. Neutrophil apoptosis rate is predicted to be crucial for the qualitative nature of the system. This model is described in the article: The resolution of inflammation: a mathematical model of neutrophil and macrophage interactions. Dunster JL, Byrne HM, King JR. Bull. Math. Biol. 2014 Aug; 76(8): 1953-1980 Abstract: There is growing interest in inflammation due to its involvement in many diverse medical conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, cancer, arthritis and asthma. The traditional view that resolution of inflammation is a passive process is now being superceded by an alternative hypothesis whereby its resolution is an active, anti-inflammatory process that can be manipulated therapeutically. This shift in mindset has stimulated a resurgence of interest in the biological mechanisms by which inflammation resolves. The anti-inflammatory processes central to the resolution of inflammation revolve around macrophages and are closely related to pro-inflammatory processes mediated by neutrophils and their ability to damage healthy tissue. We develop a spatially averaged model of inflammation centring on its resolution, accounting for populations of neutrophils and macrophages and incorporating both pro- and anti-inflammatory processes. Our ordinary differential equation model exhibits two outcomes that we relate to healthy and unhealthy states. We use bifurcation analysis to investigate how variation in the system parameters affects its outcome. We find that therapeutic manipulation of the rate of macrophage phagocytosis can aid in resolving inflammation but success is critically dependent on the rate of neutrophil apoptosis. Indeed our model predicts that an effective treatment protocol would take a dual approach, targeting macrophage phagocytosis alongside neutrophil apoptosis.
