Exercise-Induced Myokine Response Following 75-km Cycling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Myokine is a term referring to a variety of cytokines or chemokines that are produced and released by myocytes in response to skeletal muscle contractions. The myokine response to prolonged exercise is not well known. Therefore, the purpose of this study

Can irisin be a linker between physical activity and brain function?

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2016
Irisin was initially discovered as a novel hormone-like myokine released from skeletal muscle during exercise to improve obesity and glucose dysfunction by stimulating the browning of white adipose tissue.

Obesity, Osteoarthritis, and Myokines: Balancing Weight Management Strategies, Myokine Regulation, and Muscle Health

open access: yesNutrients
Obesity and osteoarthritis (OA) are increasingly prevalent conditions that are intricately linked, with each exacerbating the other’s pathogenesis and worsening patient outcomes. This review explores the dual impact of obesity on OA, highlighting the role of excessive weight in aggravating joint degeneration and the limitations OA imposes on physical ...

Hepatocyte BDNF Acts as a Novel Immune Checkpoint to Restrain TLR4‐Mediated Acute Hepatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study identifies hepatocyte‐derived BDNF as an endogenous TLR4 antagonist that alleviates acute hepatitis. BDNF is downregulated in hepatocytes via REST‐mediated transcriptional repression during ALI/ALF. Mechanistically, BDNF binds to TLR4 on macrophages to suppress inflammation.

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation: A New Therapeutic Option for Chronic Diseases Based on Contraction-Induced Myokine Secretion

open access: yes, 2019
Myokines are peptides known to modulate brain neuroplasticity, adipocyte metabolism, bone mineralization, endothelium repair and cell growth arrest in colon and breast cancer, among other processes.

Myokines and interorgan crosstalk: bridging exercise to health promotion and disease prevention [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism
Exercise is known to promote physical health and reduce the risk of various diseases. During exercise, skeletal muscle actively contracts to perform movements and secretes hormone-like molecules termed myokines.

Transcriptomic Analysis in the Liver of Two Rabbit Lines Divergently Selected for Intramuscular Fat Content

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The intramuscular fat (IMF) content is an important indicator of meat quality, affecting the sensory properties of meat. IMF is a complex trait with polygenic nature. This research aimed to identify differentially expressed (DE) genes and key transcription factors (TFs) associated with IMF deposition in the liver of two rabbit lines ...
