Apelin-13 (human, bovine, mouse, rat) CAS NO.217082-58-1

Apelin-13 (human, bovine, mouse, rat) (CAS NO. 217082-58-1) is a synthetic tridecapeptide representing the predominant, highly active C-terminal fragment of the endogenous Apelin peptide. This sequence (e.g., human: Gln-Arg-Pro-Arg-Leu-Ser-His-Lys-Gly-Pro-Met-Pro-Phe) is considered one of the most potent endogenous ligands for the G protein-coupled Apelin receptor (APJ/APLNR). It is a key regulator of cardiovascular function, fluid balance, and metabolism, and serves as a critical research tool in cardiovascular, metabolic, and central nervous system studies.

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

Apelin-13 exerts its effects by binding to and activating the Apelin receptor (APJ), triggering tissue-specific G protein signaling:
  1. Cardiovascular System (Predominantly Gi/o Coupling):
    • Vasodilation: Activates endothelial Gi/o proteins, leading to eNOS phosphorylation, nitric oxide (NO) production, and vasodilation. It also antagonizes Angiotensin II signaling, opposing the Renin-Angiotensin System (RAS).
    • Positive Inotropy: In the heart, it increases contractility through mechanisms that may involve both Gi and Gq pathways, enhancing cardiac output without increasing heart rate.
  2. Central Nervous System: In the hypothalamus, it modulates fluid intake (reduces thirst), appetite, and neuroendocrine axes via APJ receptors.
  3. Metabolism: In adipose tissue, it enhances glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity.
  4. Angiogenesis: Promotes new blood vessel formation.

  

2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS

This peptide is widely used in diverse areas of physiological and pharmacological research. Key applications include:
  • Cardiovascular Research: Investigating its role as a vasodilator, inotropic agent, and cardioprotective factor in models of hypertension, heart failure, myocardial infarction, and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
  • Metabolism & Diabetes Research: Studying its effects on insulin sensitivity, glucose disposal, and adipose tissue function in models of obesity and type 2 diabetes.
  • Neuroscience: Exploring central roles in body fluid homeostasis (dipsogenesis), feeding behavior, neuroprotection, and mood disorders.
  • Angiogenesis & Cancer: Researching its pro-angiogenic effects in both physiological repair and pathological contexts like tumor growth.
  • Drug Discovery: Serving as the reference standard agonist for screening novel APJ receptor modulators (agonists/antagonists).

  

3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT

Apelin-13 itself is in early-phase clinical investigation, demonstrating significant translational potential from robust preclinical data.
  • Cardiovascular Therapeutics: Preclinical studies consistently show Apelin-13 can lower blood pressure, improve cardiac function in heart failure, and protect the heart from ischemic injury. Early human clinical trials (Phase I/IIa) in patients with heart failure have demonstrated that intravenous Apelin-13 infusion produces potent peripheral and coronary vasodilation, increases cardiac output, and reduces preload and afterload with a favorable safety profile. It represents a promising novel therapy for acute heart failure.
  • Metabolic Disease Target: Its insulin-sensitizing effects in animals highlight its potential for treating metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.
  • Validated Target: Research with Apelin-13 has been instrumental in validating the APJ receptor as a major therapeutic target, leading to significant investment in developing stable APJ agonists for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
