Abstract

In 2002, a transmembrane protein-now known as FNDC5-was discovered and shown to be expressed in skeletal muscle, heart, and brain. It was virtually ignored for 10 years, until a study in 2012 proposed that, in response to exercise, the ectodomain of skeletal muscle FNDC5 was cleaved, traveled to white adipose tissue, and induced browning. The wasted energy of this browning raised the possibility that this myokine, named irisin, might mediate some beneficial effects of exercise. Since then, more than 1000 papers have been published exploring the roles of irisin. A major interest has been on adipose tissue and metabolism, following up the major proposal from 2012. Many studies correlating plasma irisin levels with physiological conditions have been questioned for using flawed assays for irisin concentration. However, experiments altering irisin levels by injecting recombinant irisin or by gene knockout are more promising. Recent discoveries have suggested potential roles of irisin in bone remodeling and in the brain, with effects potentially related to Alzheimer's disease. We discuss some discrepancies between research groups and the mechanisms that are yet to be determined. Some important questions raised in the initial discovery of irisin, such as the role of the mutant start codon of human FNDC5 and the mechanism of ectodomain cleavage, remain to be answered. Apart from these specific questions, a promising new tool has been developed-mice with a global or tissue-specific knockout of FNDC5. In this review, we critically examine the current knowledge and delineate potential solutions to resolve existing ambiguities.

Figure 1.
Structure of FNDC5 and irisin. (A) Schematic structure of the mouse FNDC5 protein with functional units (upper part). Diagram of the FNDC5 protein. The FNIII domain is in color, with beta strands vertical and connecting loops horizontal. The mature irisin peptide runs from the signal peptide cleavage site to the proposed irisin cut site (lower part). (B) Ribbon diagram of the irisin dimer (pdb 4LSD chains A,B, (5). The C’ strands pair to form a continuous eight-strand beta sheet in the dimer. Asn36 and Asn81, the putative sites of N-linked glycosylation, are shown in black sticks. (C) A model of transmembrane FNDC5, where the linker between the FNIII domain and the transmembrane helix is shown as unstructured coil. The cleavage step should involve a secretase but this has not been explored. Alternatively, the dimeric FNDC5 could function as a transmembrane receptor, with unknown ligand. Figures B and C were constructed in PyMOl (The PyMOL Molecular Graphics System, Version 2.0 Schrödinger, LLC).

Plasma concentrations of irisin measured with ELISA methodologies in human (blue) and mice (green). The numbers given on the arrowheads represent the lowest and highest irisin levels (units on the x-axis) reported for the specific assay in both species. All values are means or medians of control groups. Concentrations measured by quantitative MS for humans and mice are marked by arrows above the graph and on the x-axis.

Exercise increases PGC1α in skeletal muscle of mice and humans. The subsequent increase in FNDC5 is established in mice but not in humans. FNDC5 may reside as dimeric transmembrane receptor, for example, in skeletal muscle, bone, and brain. The putative cleavage mechanism releasing the extracellular part as irisin is still unclear. Irisin acts on WAT and induces browning, is involved in bone remodeling and improves cognition and memory. Many of these effects have been shown by application of r-irisin to cells or by injections into mice. Browning of WAT was induced by application of high doses of r-irisin or by forced ectopic expression of FNDC5 in mice but was not shown in humans so far. Further open questions are: Does irisin enhance bone formation or resorption or both in a dose dependent manner? Does irisin cross the BBB to increase FNDC5 and BDNF levels as was demonstrated for exercise kynurenic acid, lactate, and cathepsin B? In a recent report (155) a liver-to-brain axis was established with a central role of exercise-induced, liver-derived GPLD1. The figure was partly created with biorender.org.
