Current Evidence of the Role of the Myokine Irisin in Cancer

Abstract: Cancer is a disease associated with extreme human suffering, a huge economic cost to health systems, and is the second leading cause of death worldwide. Regular physical activity is associated with many health benefits, including reduced cancer risk. In the past two decades, exercising/contracting skeletal muscles have been found to secrete a wide range of biologically active proteins, named myokines. Myokines are delivered, via the circulation, to different cells/tissues, bind to their specific receptors and … Show more

“…A number of reviews focusing on irisin have been published in the last 10-20 years [37,[43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50]. The influence of exercise on FNDC5 mRNA expression and irisin levels is reviewed previously [43,51].…”

“…Peak concentrations of irisin occurred at 0 h or 1 h after training, and that the increase is transient [4,[10][11][12]. As a result, the half-life of irisin in humans is less than an hour [48]. This is probably why irisin increases after…”

“…Irisin was also demonstrated to be a regulator in AMPK, PI3K/AKT, and STAT3/Snail signaling [ 29 ]. Specifically, irisin inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion, as well as induced apoptosis in cancer cells by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT pathway or stimulating PARP cleavage [ 30 ]. Irisin increased the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells by promoting the ERK1/2 pathway [ 31 ].…”
