Irisin reduces amyloid-β by inducing the release of neprilysin from astrocytes following downregulation of ERK-STAT3 signaling

AI Summary

Exercise-induced myokine irisin shows potential as a therapeutic target for Alzheimer's Disease by reducing Aβ pathology.

Kim et al. demonstrate that exercise-induced myokine irisin reduces Aβ pathology using three-dimensional (3D) cell culture model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and delineates the key pathways through which irisin exerts neuroprotective effects. These findings offer strong support for the development of irisin as a potential therapeutic target for AD.
