Abstract
Physical exercise is an effective strategy for improving human health. Various organs, including the heart, lung and kidney, can benefit from exercise. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms by which exercise protects organs remain unknown. Irisin, a myokine secreted from muscle in response to exercise, has attracted increased attention from researchers. The role of irisin in multiorgan protection has been gradually revealed, and this muscle-derived circulating factor is regarded as an essential bridge linking exercise and organ health. The mechanisms by which irisin protects diverse organs are different. Here, we review the research progress on the multiorgan protective effects of irisin and discuss the underlying molecular mechanisms.
