Abstract
Skeletal muscle secretes numerous systemic factors, termed myokines, which can regulate homeostasis of distal tissues. In this issue, Rai et al. (2021) identify and characterize a novel myokine, Amyrel, which is secreted under muscle proteasome stress and protects central nervous system health and function by enhancing protein quality control during aging.
