Transcriptional regulation of the human KiSS1 gene [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2011
Kisspeptin, the product of the KiSS1 gene, has emerged as a key component of the mechanism by which the hypothalamus controls puberty and reproductive development. It does so by stimulating the secretion of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH). Little is known about the transcriptional control of the KiSS1 gene.

Altered placental expression of kisspeptin and its receptor in pre-eclampsia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Kisspeptin, originally identified as metastatin, important in preventing cancer metastasis, has more recently been shown to be important in pregnancy.

Novel insights into the metabolic action of Kiss1 neurons [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2020
Kiss1 neurons are essential regulators of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis by regulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release. Compelling evidence suggests that Kiss1 neurons of the arcuate nucleus (Kiss1 ARC ), recently identified as the hypothalamic GnRH pulse ...

Upregulated UHRF1 promotes bladder cancer cell invasion by epigenetic silencing of KiSS1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1), as an epigenetic regulator, plays important roles in the tumorigenesis and cancer progression.

Conditional Oprk1-dependent Kiss1 deletion in kisspeptin neurons caused estrogen-dependent LH pulse disruption and LH surge attenuation in female rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse and surge are considered to be generated by arcuate kisspeptin/neurokinin B/dynorphin A (KNDy) neurons and anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) kisspeptin neurons, respectively, in female rodents ...

EGF stimulates human trophoblast cell invasion by downregulating ID3-mediated KISS1 expression

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2021
Background During pregnancy, trophoblast cell invasion needs to be finely controlled. Aberrant trophoblast cell invasion is associated with placental diseases.

Estradiol Regulation of Kiss1 Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Kisspeptin, encoded by the Kiss1 gene, is required for reproductive function. There are several distinct Kiss1 populations in the brain, and how these kisspeptin neurons are regulated is still not fully understood.

STAT4 targets KISS1 to promote the apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells

open access: yesJournal of Ovarian Research, 2020
Background In mammals, it is known that the estradiol-17β (E2) is mainly synthetized in ovarian granulosa cells (GCs), and the excessive apoptosis of GCs induces the follicular atresia.

Clinical and Biological Significance of KISS1 Expression in Prostate Cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
For men in the United States, prostate cancer (PCa) is the most frequent malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer mortality. The metastatic spread of PCa is responsible for most deaths related to PCa.
