Aim: Irisin, a cleavage product of FNDC5 gene, is an exercise-induced myokine involved in muscle-adipose crosstalk with positive effects on energy metabolism. We evaluated the effect of acute inactivity on plasma irisin levels on gluteal subcutaneous adipose tissue (g-SAT) gene expression of FNDC5 and of genes involved in its network. Methods: 23 healthy male volunteers,7 “Young” (18-25 y) and 16 “Older” (55-65 y) underwent 14-days of continuous horizontal bed rest (BR). At baseline (BR1) and after 14 days of BR (BR14) a blood sample for biochemical analysis and plasma irisin dosage was collected. Moreover we performed a g-SAT biopsy (7 representative samples) in order to obtain RNA for subsequent gene expression analysis with microarray. We evaluated differences in gene expression of FNDC5 and a list of 56 genes, identified trough a review of literature, potentially involved in irisin’s pathway. Results: At BR1 irisin did not differ between Young and Older (4,58 vs 5,01 mg/L; p 0.74). At BR14, we observed a significant increase of irisin in both groups (Y from 4,58 to 6,07; O from 5,01 to 7,05; p 0,01). Furthermore, after BR, FNDC5 was overexpressed (FC 1,8; p 0,002) in gluteal adipocyte and a different expression of 10/56 genes involved in irisin pathway was observed (p 0,0003). Conclusions: Our data suggest that irisin may play a role in metabolic adaptation following acute immobilization and could be the response of muscle against the detrimental effects of inactivity. This underlines the importance of irisin in the muscle-adipose tissue crosstalk to maintain the global homeostasis. P2.7.238.

Abstract

Aim: Irisin, a cleavage product of FNDC5 gene, is an exercise-induced myokine involved in muscle-adipose crosstalk with positive effects on energy metabolism. We evaluated the effect of acute inactivity on plasma irisin levels on gluteal subcutaneous adipose tissue (g-SAT) gene expression of FNDC5 and of genes involved in its network. Methods: 23 healthy male volunteers,7 “Young” (18-25 y) and 16 “Older” (55-65 y) underwent 14-days of continuous horizontal bed rest (BR). At baseline (BR1) and after 14 days of BR (BR14) a blood sample for biochemical analysis and plasma irisin dosage was collected. Moreover we performed a g-SAT biopsy (7 representative samples) in order to obtain RNA for subsequent gene expression analysis with microarray. We evaluated differences in gene expression of FNDC5 and a list of 56 genes, identified trough a review of literature, potentially involved in irisin’s pathway. Results: At BR1 irisin did not differ between Young and Older (4,58 vs 5,01 mg/L; p 0.74). At BR14, we observed a significant increase of irisin in both groups (Y from 4,58 to 6,07; O from 5,01 to 7,05; p 0,01). Furthermore, after BR, FNDC5 was overexpressed (FC 1,8; p 0,002) in gluteal adipocyte and a different expression of 10/56 genes involved in irisin pathway was observed (p 0,0003).
