ABSTRACT
Irisin is a muscle factor that plays a crucial role in exercise-induced metabolic responses.Recent studies have revealed that it can boost the metabolic rate of both myocytes and adipocytes, while also enhancing mitochondrial content and dynamics.This ultimately helps to safeguard skeletal muscle, promote muscle growth, and maintain optimal muscle function.Therefore, irisin has the potential to serve as both a predictor and a biomarker for sarcopenia.In this paper, we delve into the impact of irisin on skeletal muscle, specifically exploring the synergistic relationship between irisin and mitochondria.Additionally, we investigate the effectiveness of irisin in reversing and restoring muscle atrophy, ultimately establishing irisin as a valuable target for treating sarcopenia.
