Myokine Irisin and Its Effects Linking Bone and Muscle Function

open access: yes, 2018
Irisin is a myokine secreted by the skeletal muscle during physical activity both in mice and humans. Its first identified role was to activate the browning response in white adipocytes, subsequently triggering non-shivering thermogenesis; therefore ...

Interleukin-15 responses to acute and chronic exercise in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
PurposeInterlukin-15 (IL-15) is an inflammatory cytokine that plays a vital role in immunology and obesity-associated metabolic syndrome. We performed this systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate whether exercise promotes circulating IL-15 ...

Autonomic Modulation and Body Composition in Educators: Physiological Associations in the Workplace Context

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study examined the relationship between body composition and cardiac autonomic nervous system activity in educators. The objective was to explore the associations between body fat mass (BFM) and fat‐free mass (FFM) with different heart rate variability (HRV) indices in a sample of educators and to assess whether FFM moderates the ...

FGF21 as a Hepatokine, Adipokine, and Myokine in Metabolism and Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family members are mostly secreted as signaling proteins with diverse functions in development and metabolism. FGF21 is a unique FGF with metabolic, but not proliferative activities. FGF21 is mostly induced by different kinds of stress and acts though FGF receptor 1c with β-Klotho as a cofactor in an endocrine or, in ...

Neurocognitive Aging Following Acute Illness: Pathobiology and a Framework for Developing Neurotherapeutic Agents

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
In this review, we discuss the scientific basis for how neurocognitive aging occurs after critical illness, including sepsis, trauma, and burns, and the clinical need to develop therapies to reduce inflammation, protect the blood–brain barrier, remove senescent cells, and enhance neuroplasticity.

Exercise Intervention for REM Sleep Behavior Disorder in Parkinson's Disease: Mechanisms and Implications for Neurorehabilitation

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
This review systematically explores exercise as a multi‐target intervention for RBD, highlighting its mechanisms of action and regulatory effects on key pathophysiological processes. ABSTRACT Backgrounds REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a prodromal non‐motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD) and other α‐synucleinopathies, affecting approximately ...

Myokine mediated muscle-kidney crosstalk suppresses metabolic reprogramming and fibrosis in damaged kidneys

open access: yes, 2017
Kidney injury initiates metabolic reprogramming in tubule cells that contributes to the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Exercise has been associated with beneficial effects in patients with CKD.

Hydrogen Sulfide and Irisin, Potential Allies in Ensuring Cardiovascular Health

open access: yesAntioxidants
Irisin is a myokine secreted under the influence of physical activity and exposure to low temperatures and through different exogenous stimuli by the cleavage of its precursor, fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5).

The Rising Burden of Osteosarcopenia in Older Adults: A Narrative Review of Pathophysiology, Diagnostic Challenges, and Therapeutic Perspectives

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Osteosarcopenia, defined as the coexistence of osteoporosis and sarcopenia, is an emerging geriatric syndrome linked to the musculoskeletal decline associated with aging. It is correlated with an increased risk of falls, fractures, disability, and mortality.
