Abstract
Soluble mediators secreted by skeletal muscles (collectively referred to as myokines) exert systemic effects by signaling to distant organs. Rai et al. have now uncovered a muscle-to-central nervous system (CNS) signaling axis, which is engaged in response to proteostatic stress. These adaptations confer protection against pathological protein accumulation in the CNS, a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases.
