Circulating Irisin Is Reduced in Male Patients with Type 1 and Type 2 Myotonic Dystrophies

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
ContextMyotonic dystrophies (DM) are dominantly inherited muscle disorders characterized by myotonia, muscle weakness, and wasting. The reasons for sarcopenia in DMs are uncleared and multiple factors are involved. Irisin, a positive hormone regulator of

The Role of Interventional Irisin on Heart Molecular Physiology

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
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]

open access: yes, 2013
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.

Diagnosing and Treating Periodontitis and Multimorbidity Altogether: The Case Example of the Physical Exercise Hormone Irisin

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Irisin is an extracellular peptide stimulated by exercise and could act as both a biomarker and mediate the positive impact of exercise. This scoping review synthesizes human evidence on irisin variations in non‐communicable diseases, showing an increase of irisin in saliva and gingival tissues in periodontitis, potentially reflecting reparative or ...

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 exhibits neuroprotection by preventing mitochondrial damage in Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesnpj Parkinson's Disease, 2023
Exercise has been proposed as an effective non-pharmacological management for Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients. Irisin, a recently identified myokine, is increased by exercise and plays pivotal roles in energy metabolism.
