About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for APLN:
This gene encodes a peptide that functions as an endogenous ligand for the G protein coupled receptor APJ. The encoded
protein is synthesized as a prepropeptide that is processed into biologically active C-terminal fragments. The peptide
fragments activate different tissue specific signaling pathways that regulate diverse biological functions including
fluid homeostasis, cardiovascular function and insulin secretion. This protein also functions as a coreceptor for the
human immunodeficiency virus 1.(provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: APEL_HUMAN, Q9ULZ1
Function: Endogenous ligand for APJ, an alternative coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection. Inhibits HIV-1 entry in
cells coexpressing CD4 and APJ. Apelin-36 has a greater inhibitory activity on HIV infection than other synthetic
apelin derivatives. The oral intake in the colostrum and the milk could have a role in the modulation of the immune
responses in neonates. May also have a role in the central control of body fluid homeostasis by influencing AVP
release and drinking behavior

summary for APLN:
Apelin-36, apelin-13 and [Pyr1]-apelin-13 are the predominant endogenous ligands for the apelin receptor
(APJ receptor), a G-protein-coupled receptor with considerable sequence homology to the angiotensin (AT1)
receptor. The APJ receptor and apelin peptides act as mediators of cardiovascular function, fluid
homeostasis and adipocyte endocrine secretion.
