Irisin treatment improves healing of dystrophic skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Irisin is an exercise induced myokine that is shown to promote browning of adipose tissue and hence, increase energy expenditure. Furthermore, our unpublished results indicate that Irisin improves myogenic differentiation and induces skeletal

Irisin, Turning Up the Heat [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2012
Exercise exerts beneficial effects on systemic metabolism. A recent Nature paper (Boström et al., 2012) identifies irisin as an exercise-induced hormone secreted by skeletal muscle in mice and humans. Irisin promotes brown adipocyte recruitment in white fat and improves systemic metabolism by increasing energy expenditure.

Role of irisin in bone diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Bone diseases are common among middle-aged and elderly people, and harm to activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life (QOL) for patients. It is crucial to search for key regulatory factors associated with the development of bone diseases and explore potential therapeutic targets for bone diseases.

Irisin regulates cardiac physiology in zebrafish.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Irisin is a myokine encoded in its precursor fibronectin type III domain containing 5 (FNDC5). It is abundantly expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscle, and is secreted upon the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator ...
