Exercise-Released Myokines in the Control of Energy Metabolism
Open accessAbstract
Physical activity reduces cardiometabolic risk, while physical inactivity increases chronic diseases risk. This led to the idea that exercise-induced muscle contraction contributes to metabolic regulation and health. It is now well established that skeletal muscle, through the release of endocrine factors, i.e., so-called myokines, crosstalk with metabolic organs such as adipose tissue, liver and pancreas. Recent advances suggested that a number of myokines are able to modulate adipose tissue metabolism and thermogenic activity, liver endogenous glucose production and β-cell insulin secretion. This novel paradigm offers a compelling hypothesis and molecular basis to explain the link between physical inactivity and chronic diseases. Herein, we review major findings and recent advances linking exercise, myokines secretion and inter-organ crosstalk. Identifying the molecular mediators linking physical activity to metabolic health could open the path toward novel therapeutic targets in metabolic diseases.

Exercise stimulates release of myokines and adipokines that coordinate inter-tissue communication between skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, liver, and brain.
“exercise stimulates the release of myokines and adipokines, bioactive molecules that coordinate inter-tissue communication between skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, the liver, and the brain [4].”

The Introduction and Conclusion describe exercise-induced myokine secretion and communication between skeletal muscle and metabolic organs, including adipose tissue and liver. The Brain section also discusses possible muscle–brain communication. Our copy does not establish the claim that exercise stimulates adipokine release or that adipokines participate in this communication. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredExercise induces systemic and tissue-specific adaptations that enhance mitochondrial biogenesis, improve insulin sensitivity, modulate inflammatory pathways, and promote favorable remodeling of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue.
“Exercise induces a range of systemic and tissue-specific adaptations that enhance mitochondrial biogenesis, improve insulin sensitivity, modulate inflammatory pathways, and promote the favorable remodeling of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue [4,5,6].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
