Irisin – a myth rather than an exercise-inducible myokine
The myokine irisin is supposed to be cleaved from a transmembrane precursor, FNDC5 (fibronectin type III domain containing 5), and to mediate beneficial effects of exercise on human metabolism. However, evidence for irisin circulating in blood is largely based on commercial ELISA kits which are based on polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) not previously tested for cross-reacting serum proteins. We hav...
متن کاملIrisin, a novel myokine: potential role in obesity and diabetes
Obesity is a worldwide health problem that results in a signifi cant increased risk of morbidity and mortality. While we know that obesity is the consequence of a chronic imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure, how energy expenditure is regulated in humans is not clearly understood. Recent publications suggest that specifi c depots of white adipose tissue can be converted to the...
متن کاملFNDC5/Irisin Is Not Only a Myokine but Also an Adipokine
Exercise provides clear beneficial effects for the prevention of numerous diseases. However, many of the molecular events responsible for the curative and protective role of exercise remain elusive. The recent discovery of FNDC5/irisin protein that is liberated by muscle tissue in response to exercise might be an important finding with regard to this unsolved mechanism. The most striking aspect...
متن کاملNovel myokine: irisin may be an independent predictor for subclinic atherosclerosis in Behçet's disease.
Behçet's disease (BD) is a vasculitic and inflammatory disease causing endothelial dysfunction. Irisin is a metabolic hormone related to insulin resistance and endothelial functions. In this study, we investigated the relationship between irisin and carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), which is a marker of atherosclerosis in patients with BD. 48 patients with BD and 50 healthy individuals wer...
