KISS1/KISS1R in Cancer: Friend or Foe? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
The KISS1 gene encodes KISS1, a protein that is rapidly processed in serum into smaller but biologically active peptides called kisspeptins (KPs). KISS1 and the KPs signal via the G-protein coupled receptor KISS1R.

Visualisation of Kiss1 Neurone Distribution Using a Kiss1-CRE Transgenic Mouse. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, 2016
Kisspeptin neuropeptides are encoded by the Kiss1 gene and play a critical role in the regulation of the mammalian reproductive axis. Kiss1 neurones are found in two locations in the rodent hypothalamus: one in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) and another in ...

GnRH-Deficient Phenotypes in Humans and Mice with Heterozygous Variants inKISS1/Kiss1 [PDF]

open access: yesObstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2011
Context: KISS1 is a candidate gene for GnRH deficiency. Objective: Our objective was to identify deleterious mutations in KISS1. Patients and Methods: DNA sequencing and assessment of the effects of rare sequence variants (RSV) were conducted in 1025 ...

Gallium-68-Labeled KISS1-54 Peptide for Mapping KISS1 Receptor via PET: Initial Evaluation in Human Tumor Cell Lines and in Tumor-Bearing Mice

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2023
Kisspeptins (KPs, KISS1) and their receptor (KISS1R) play a pivotal role as metastasis suppressor for many cancers. Low or lost KP expression is associated with higher tumor grade, increased metastatic potential, and poor prognosis.

Dicer ablation in Kiss1 neurons impairs puberty and fertility preferentially in female mice [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Kiss1 neurons are essential for puberty and fertility. Here, the authors show that canonical microRNA biosynthesis in Kiss1 neurons plays an essential role in the control of puberty and fertility, especially in females, likely via repression of ...

KiSS1 inhibits growth and invasion of osteosarcoma cells through inhibition of the MAPK pathway

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2013
As a metastasis suppressor, KiSS1 has been implicated in numerous human cancers. However, recent studies have demonstrated that KiSS1 promotes tumor growth and metastasis in breast cancer, and it is unclear about the expression and function of KiSS1 in ...

Sex-specific pubertal and metabolic regulation of Kiss1 neurons via Nhlh2 [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Hypothalamic Kiss1 neurons control gonadotropin-releasing hormone release through the secretion of kisspeptin. Kiss1 neurons serve as a nodal center that conveys essential regulatory cues for the attainment and maintenance of reproductive function ...

CHARACTERIZATION OF Kiss1 NEURONS USING TRANSGENIC MOUSE MODELS [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience, 2011
Humans and mice with loss-of-function mutations of the genes encoding kisspeptins (Kiss1) or kisspeptin receptor (Kiss1r) are infertile due to hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
