A role for FNDC5/Irisin in the beneficial effects of exercise on the brain and in neurodegenerative diseases
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases(2019)
Abstract
The beneficial effects of exercise on the brain are well known. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are much less well understood. Interestingly, myokines, hormones secreted by muscle in response to exercise, gained attention as such beneficial mediators. In this review, we will focus on FNDC5 and its secreted form, the newly discovered myokine “irisin”. We will discuss their role in the beneficial effects of exercise and its potential application in neurodegenerative disorders.
