Impact of Exercise Intensity on Cerebral BDNF Levels: Role of FNDC5/Irisin
The positive effects of physical exercise (EX) are well known to be mediated by cerebral BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), a neurotrophin involved in learning and memory, the expression of which could be induced by circulating irisin, a peptide derived from Fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5) produced by skeletal muscle ...

Evidence against a beneficial effect of irisin in humans. [PDF]
Brown adipose tissue has gained interest as a potential target to treat obesity and metabolic diseases. Irisin is a newly identified hormone secreted from skeletal muscle enhancing browning of white fat cells, which improves systemic metabolism by ...

New insights into the cellular activities of Fndc5/Irisin and its signaling pathways [PDF]
Fndc5, a well-defined myokine and also identified as an adipokine, has a critical role in modulation of metabolism and protection against obesity. These important functions are mediated by irisin, a secretory peptide produced from proteolytic processing ...

Swimming alleviates myocardial fibrosis of type II diabetic rats through activating miR-34a-mediated SIRT1/PGC-1α/FNDC5 signal pathway [PDF]
Myocardial fibrosis can trigger heart failure in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), and irisin, an exercise-induced myokine, may have a beneficial effect on cardiac function.

Increased FNDC5/Irisin expression in human hepatocellular carcinoma
The fibronectin type III domain containing 5 (FNDC5)/Irisin, a novel energy-regulating hormone, is associated with lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. It is produced in low amounts by normal hepatic tissue, while in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), in which aberrant de novo lipogenesis (DNL) occurs, the hepatic expression of FNDC5/Irisin is still ...

FNDC5/Irisin: A New Protagonist in Acute Brain Injury [PDF]
Acute brain injury (ABI), including stroke and traumatic brain injury, which accounts for a heavy burden of morbidity and mortality, results in a great loss of productive life and serious health problem worldwide. To improve patients' survival and ameliorate their outcome, effective clinical treatment strategies and new therapeutic targets are urgently
