Description

Apelin-12 is a peptide hormone that belongs to the group of apelin family. It is an endogenous agonist for the apelin receptor and has been shown to affect metabolic and cardiovascular regulation. Apelin-12 has been found to increase systolic blood pressure, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the synthesis of nitric oxide in the heart. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, which have been shown in vivo using a model of colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). The biological properties of this hormone are not yet fully understood. However, it is known that it has effects on cardiac contractility and myocardial infarct size in vivo. Further investigation into this protein's role in inflammatory diseases and metabolic disorders may lead to new treatments for these conditions.
