Muscles and their myokines [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2011 SummaryIn the past, the role of physical activity as a life-style modulating factor has been considered as that of a tool to balance energy intake. Although it is important to avoid obesity, physical inactivity should be discussed in a much broader context.

A new member of the myokine family: Irisin
Medicine Science, 2017 Skeletal muscle is an important tissue which functions as an endocrine organ and secretes the factors called myokine. Irisin is a thermogenic peptide which has been recently defined as a new myokine.

The Controversial Role of Irisin in Clinical Management of Coronary Heart Disease
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 Irisin, a PGC1α-dependent myokine, was once believed to have beneficial effects induced by exercise. Since its first discovery of adipose browning in 2012, multiple studies have been trying to explore the metabolic functions of irisin, such as glucose ...

Myokines and Resistance Training: A Narrative Review
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 In the last few years, the muscular system has gained attention due to the discovery of the muscle-secretome and its high potency for retaining or regaining health. These cytokines, described as myokines, released by the working muscle, are involved in anti-inflammatory, metabolic and immunological processes. These are able to influence human health in

Voluntary exercise and cardiac remodeling in a myocardial infarction model
Open Medicine, 2020 We investigated the effects of voluntary exercise after myocardial infarction (MI) on cardiac function, remodeling, and inflammation. Male C57BL/6J mice were divided into the following four groups: sedentary + sham (Sed-Sh), sedentary + MI (Sed-MI ...

The Physiological Role of Irisin in the Regulation of Muscle Glucose Homeostasis
Endocrines, 2021 Irisin is a myokine that primarily targets adipose tissue, where it increases energy expenditure and contributes to the beneficial effects of exercise through the browning of white adipose tissue. As our knowledge has deepened in recent years, muscle has

Irisin: A myokine with locomotor activity [PDF]
Neuroscience Letters, 2015 The mechanisms underlying alterations in brain functions in response to physical exercise are not fully understood. The present study examined the central effect of irisin, a 112 amino acid polypeptide hormone secreted from the skeletal muscle after exercise, on the locomotion in rats.
