Abstract

The Apelin receptor (APJ), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is activated by the endogenous peptide apelin and plays a significant role in various physiological processes, including cardiovascular regulation, fluid homeostasis, energy metabolism, and angiogenesis. Pharmacological agonists of the APJ receptor have emerged as potential therapeutic agents for treating conditions such as heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, and metabolic disorders. This review explores the mechanisms of action of APJ receptor agonists, highlighting their pharmacodynamics, downstream signaling pathways, and therapeutic implications. Additionally, it examines advancements in the development of synthetic APJ agonists and their clinical potential.
