Function
function
Endogenous ligand for the apelin receptor (APLNR). Drives internalization of APLNR (By similarity).
Apelin-36 dissociates more hardly than (pyroglu)apelin-13 from APLNR (By similarity).
Hormone involved in the regulation of cardiac precursor cell movements during gastrulation and heart morphogenesis (By similarity).
Has an inhibitory effect on cytokine production in response to T-cell receptor/CD3 cross-linking; the oral intake of apelin in the colostrum and the milk might therefore modulate immune responses in neonates (PubMed:10525157).
Plays a role in early coronary blood vessels formation (PubMed:28890073).
Mediates myocardial contractility in an ERK1/2-dependent manner (By similarity).
May also have a role in the central control of body fluid homeostasis by influencing vasopressin release and drinking behavior (PubMed:11359874).

Phenotypes & Variants
Disruption phenotype
Mice heart of embryos show increased coronary vessel growth at 13.5 dpc and 15.5 dpc (PubMed:28890073).
Double knockout mice of APELA and APLN genes exhibit the same penetrance, embryonic lethality and cardiovascular malformations as single APELA knockout mice (PubMed:28854362).
