Description

Apelin-13 is a peptide hormone that regulates the release of insulin and has been shown to play a role in metabolic disorders. It is a member of the apelin family, which includes human, bovine, and mouse apelin-12, as well as rat apelin-13. Apelin-13 binds to ATP-binding cassette transporter type 2 (ABC2) and increases autophagy by increasing its expression. Apelin-13 also induces mitochondrial membrane potential changes and neuronal death. These effects are mediated by an increase in reactive oxygen species production. Apelin-13 has been shown to be effective in treating experimental models of Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.
