Characterization of the role of Irisin in skeletal muscle growth and repair
Exercise stimulates the expression of PPAR-γ co-activator I-α (PGC I-α), which in turn increases the levels of the myokine, Irisin. Irisin is synthesized as part of a 209 amino acid (aa) long precursor protein, Fibronectin Type III Domain Containing Protein 5 (FNDC5), which is proteolytically cleave...
