CC -!- FUNCTION: Endogenous ligand for the apelin receptor (APLNR). Drives
CC internalization of APLNR (By similarity). Apelin-36 dissociates more
CC hardly than (pyroglu)apelin-13 from APLNR (By similarity). Hormone
CC involved in the regulation of cardiac precursor cell movements during
CC gastrulation and heart morphogenesis (By similarity). Has an inhibitory
CC effect on cytokine production in response to T-cell receptor/CD3 cross-
CC linking; the oral intake of apelin in the colostrum and the milk might
CC therefore modulate immune responses in neonates (PubMed:10525157).
CC Plays a role in early coronary blood vessels formation
CC (PubMed:28890073). Mediates myocardial contractility in an ERK1/2-
CC dependent manner (By similarity). May also have a role in the central
CC control of body fluid homeostasis by influencing vasopressin release
CC and drinking behavior (PubMed:11359874). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q4TTN8,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9R0R3, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10525157,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:11359874, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28890073}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9TUI9}.
CC Secreted, extracellular space {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9TUI9}.
CC Note=Abundantly secreted in the colostrum. Lower level in milk.
CC Decreases rapidly within several days after parturition in milk, but is
CC still detectable even in commercial milk.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9TUI9}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in extraembryonic visceral endoderm and
CC in the primitive streak at 6.5 and 7.5 dpc (PubMed:28854362). Expressed
CC in the anterior visceral yolk sac at 8.25 dpc (PubMed:28854362).
CC Expressed weakly in the embryonic heart at 11.5 dpc (PubMed:26611206).
CC Expressed in the adult heart (PubMed:26611206). Expressed in
CC endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes and weakly expressed in
CC fibroblasts (PubMed:26611206). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26611206,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28854362}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Not up-regulated following myocardial infarction (MI) (at
CC protein level) (PubMed:26611206). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26611206}.
CC -!- PTM: Several active peptides may be produced by proteolytic processing
CC of the peptide precursor. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9TUI9}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Mice heart of embryos show increased coronary
CC vessel growth at 13.5 dpc and 15.5 dpc (PubMed:28890073). Double
CC knockout mice of APELA and APLN genes exhibit the same penetrance,
CC embryonic lethality and cardiovascular malformations as single APELA
CC knockout mice (PubMed:28854362). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28890073}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the apelin family. {ECO:0000305}.
