However‚ the systemic anti-aging factors remain poorly identified. Here we demonstrate the role of apelin (apln) in mammalian aging and identify it as a novel anti-aging factor. We show that apln and its receptor (aplnr) undergo an age-dependent decline in multiple organs. Declining apln levels perturb organismal homeostasis‚ as mice harboring
