Kisspeptin (Kiss1) and neurokinin B (NKB) (encoded by the Kiss1 and Tac2 genes, respectively) are indispensable for reproduction. In the female of many species, Kiss1 neurons in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) coexpress dynorphin A and NKB.

The KiSS1/GPR54 System in Fish
Peptides, 2009The KiSS1/GPR54 system has now been identified in non-mammalian vertebrates. Transcripts encoding for KiSS1 and its receptor, GPR54, have been isolated from a number of fish species. The expression of their genes was characterized in the context of temporal and spatial expression and in response to endocrine manipulations.

Regulation of KiSS1 gene expression
Peptides, 2009Kisspeptins are the protein products encoded by KiSS1 gene, an important tumor metastatic suppressor and pivotal master hormone of puberty. Although KiSS1 gene is expressed in both central and peripheral tissues, the molecular mechanisms that determine the temporal and spatial expression of KiSS1 gene are not well understood.

KISS1 In Metastatic Cancer Research and Treatment: Potential and Paradoxes
The significance of KISS1 goes beyond its original discovery as a metastasis suppressor. Its function as a neuropeptide involved in diverse physiologic processes is more well studied. Enthusiasm regarding KISS1 has cumulated in clinical trials in multiple fields related to reproduction and metabolism. But its cancer therapeutic space is unsettled. This

KiSS1 In Regulation of Metastasis and Response to Antitumor Drugs
Drug Resistance Updates, 2019Metastatic dissemination of tumor cells represents a major obstacle towards cancer cure. Tumor cells with metastatic capacity are often resistant to chemotherapy. Experimental efforts revealed that the metastatic cascade is a complex process that involves multiple positive and negative regulators.

KiSS1 Suppresses Metastasis in Human Ovarian Cancer via Inhibition of Protein Kinase C Alpha
Metastasis is a vital target for cancer treatment, since the majority of cancer patients die from metastatic, rather than the primary disease. KiSS1 has been identified as a metastasis suppressor gene in melanoma and breast carcinomas.

KISS1 Expression in Colorectal Cancer
Kisspeptins, the products of the KISS1 gene, are involved in cancer invasion, migration, metastasis and angiogenesis, while they induce apoptosis in various cancers. Herein, we studied KISS1 expression in colorectal cancer.

Factors that regulate KiSS1 gene expression in the hippocampus
Brain Research, 2008Kisspeptin is a C-terminally amidated peptide encoded by the KiSS1 gene. The peptide and its receptor GPR54 are abundant in the hypothalamus and have been implicated as gatekeepers for the onset of puberty and the development of the reproductive system. Interestingly, GPR54 is also highly expressed in granule cells of the hippocampal dentate gyrus, and

KISS1/KISS1R and Breast Cancer: Metastasis Promoter
Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2019AbstractKisspeptins (KPs), peptide products of the kisspeptin-1 (KISS1) gene, are the endogenous ligands for the KISS1 receptor, KISS1R, which is a G protein-coupled receptor. In many human tumors, KISS1 functions as a metastasis-suppressor gene and KISS1/KISS1R signaling has antimetastatic and tumor-suppressor roles. On the contrary, emerging evidence
