The molecular phenotype of kisspeptin neurons in the medial amygdala of female mice
Reproduction is regulated through the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, largely via the action of kisspeptin neurons in the hypothalamus. Importantly, Kiss1 neurons have been identified in other brain regions, including the medial amygdala (MeA).

Introduction: Most male pigs are surgically castrated to avoid puberty-derived boar taint and aggressiveness. However, this surgical intervention represents a welfare concern in swine production.

Role of Kiss1 in serotonergic modulation in the zebrafish
KISS1/Kiss1 gene produces a neuropeptide, kisspeptin with the ability to activate its G-protein coupled receptor, GPR54 (Kiss-R), which is involved in the control of vertebrate reproduction. Previously, two forms of genes encoding kisspeptin (kiss1 and kiss2) and its respective receptor (kissr1 and kissr2) were identified in the zebrafish (Danio rerio).

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.

Visualisation of Kiss1 Neurone Distribution Using a Kiss1‐
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 the RP3V region, which includes the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV).

Ovulation disorders are a major cause of low pregnancy rates and infertility in humans and livestock. Kisspeptin neurons located in the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) are responsible for the generation of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (

GnRH-Deficient Phenotypes in Humans and Mice With Heterozygous Variants in KISS1/Kiss1 [PDF]
KISS1 is a candidate gene for GnRH deficiency.Our objective was to identify deleterious mutations in KISS1.DNA sequencing and assessment of the effects of rare sequence variants (RSV) were conducted in 1025 probands with GnRH-deficient conditions.Fifteen probands harbored 10 heterozygous RSV in KISS1 seen in less than 1% of control subjects.

Accumulating evidence suggests that kisspeptin-GPR54 signaling is indispensable for gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)/gonadotropin secretion and consequent reproductive functions in mammals. Conventional Kiss1 knockout (KO) mice and rats are reported
