Function | Receptor for apelin receptor early endogenous ligand (APELA) and apelin (APLN) hormones coupled to G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity (PubMed:11090199, PubMed:25639753, PubMed:28137936). Plays a key role in early development such as gastrulation, blood vessels formation and heart morphogenesis by acting as a receptor for APELA hormone (By similarity). May promote angioblast migration toward the embryonic midline, i.e. the position of the future vessel formation, during vasculogenesis (By similarity). Promotes sinus venosus (SV)-derived endothelial cells migration into the developing heart to promote coronary blood vessel development (By similarity). Also plays a role in various processes in adults such as regulation of blood vessel formation, blood pressure, heart contractility and heart failure (PubMed:25639753, PubMed:28137936). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane. Note=After exposure to apelin (APLN), internalized from the cell surface into an endosomal recycling compartment, from where it is recycled to the cell membrane (By similarity). After exposure to apelin receptor early endogenous ligand (APELA), internalized from the cell surface into an endosomal recycling compartment, from where it is recycled to the cell membrane (PubMed:25639753) {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JHG3, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25639753} |
Tissue Location | Expressed in heart, brain, kidney, stomach, spleen, thymus, lung, ovary, small intestine and colon, adipose tissues and pancreas (PubMed:8294032, PubMed:25639753). Expressed in glial cells, astrocytes and neuronal subpopulations (PubMed:8294032). Expressed in embryonic (ESCs) and induced (iPSCs) pluripotent stem cells (PubMed:25639753). |

Background
This gene encodes a member of the G protein-coupledreceptor gene family. The encoded protein is related to theangiotensin receptor, but is actually an apelin receptor thatinhibits adenylate cyclase activity and plays a counter-regulatoryrole against the pressure action of angiotensin II by exertinghypertensive effect. It functions in the cardiovascular and centralnervous systems, in glucose metabolism, in embryonic and tumorangiogenesis and as a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1)coreceptor. Two transcript variants resulting from alternativesplicing have been identified.
