Effect of a Very-Low-Calorie Ketogenic Diet on Circulating Myokine Levels Compared with the Effect of Bariatric Surgery or a Low-Calorie Diet in Patients with Obesity
(Suiza, 2019-10-04)
The preservation of muscle mass and muscle function after weight loss therapy is currently a considerable challenge in the fight against obesity. Muscle mass secretes proteins called myokines that have relevant functions ...
Fibroblast growth factor-21 potentiates glucose transport in skeletal muscle fibers
(Bioscientifica, 2020)
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a pleiotropic peptide hormone that is considered a myokine playing a role in a variety of endocrine functions, including regulation of glucose transport and lipid metabolism. Although ...
Electrical stimulation induces IL-6 in skeletal muscle through extracellular ATP by activating Ca2 signals and an IL-6 autocrine loop

Angiotensin (1-7) decreases myostatin-induced NF-kappa B signaling and skeletal muscle atrophy
(MDPI, 2020)
Myostatin is a myokine that regulates muscle function and mass, producing muscle atrophy. Myostatin induces the degradation of myofibrillar proteins, such as myosin heavy chain or troponin. The main pathway that mediates ...
Role of interleukin-6 in vascular health and disease
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
IL-6 is usually described as a pleiotropic cytokine produced in response to tissue injury or
infection. As a pro-inflammatory cytokine, IL-6 activates innate and adaptative immune
responses. IL-6 is released in the innate ...
Association between physical activity and cognition in Mexican and Korean older adults
(Elsevier BVPaíses Bajos, 2020)
Introduction: As the world's population ages, the prevalence of cognitive impairment associated with age increases. This increase is particularly pronounced in Asia and South-America. The objective of this study was to ...
