The Role of Interventional Irisin on Heart Molecular Physiology
Irisin, encoded by the FNDC5 (fibronectin type III domain containing 5) gene, is a novel myokine that has been implicated as an essential mediator of exercise benefits. Effects of irisin on heart physiology is still ambiguous.

Irisin and FNDC5 in retrospect: An exercise hormone or a transmembrane receptor? [PDF]
FNDC5 (fibronectin domain-containing [protein] 5) was initially discovered and characterized by two groups in 2002. In 2011 FNDC5 burst into prominence as the parent of irisin, a small protein containing the fibronectin type III domain.

Irisin, in women and men: blood pressure, heart rate, obesity and insulin resistance
Background Irisin is a myokine that increases with leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and for which a cardiovascular protective role has been postulated. Our aim was to assess this role in the general population. Methods A cross-sectional analysis was

Myokines in Acromegaly: An Altered Irisin Profile [PDF]
IntroductionThe muscle is an endocrine organ controlling metabolic homeostasis. Irisin and myostatin are key myokines mediating this process. Acromegaly is a chronic disease with a wide spectrum of complications, including metabolic disturbances.PurposeTo examine the influence of acromegaly on irisin and myostatin secretion and their contribution to ...
