Correlation of serum kisspeptin levels, ovarian kisspeptin expression, and ovarian BMP15 expression in rat model of polycystic ovarian syndrome

open access: yesOpen Veterinary Journal, 2023
Background: Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide that has an important role in the female reproductive cycle which is indicated by its role in regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis (HPG axis).

Comprehensive Review on Kisspeptin and Its Role in Reproductive Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism, 2015
Kisspeptin has recently emerged as a key regulator of the mammalian reproductive axis. It is known that kisspeptin, acting centrally via the kisspeptin receptor, stimulates secretion of gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH). Loss of kisspeptin signaling

Kisspeptin Modulation of Reproductive Function

open access: yesEndocrines, 2022
Kisspeptin is a peptide expressed mainly in the infundibular nucleus of the hypothalamus. Kisspeptin plays a crucial role in the regulation of reproductive functions.

Kisspeptin and fertility [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Endocrinology, 2010
The kisspeptins are a family of peptide hormones, which in recent years have been shown to play a critical role in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, thus in turn influencing fertility and reproduction. This review examines the physiological role of kisspeptin and the kisspeptin receptor in the control of gonadotrophin and ...

The Correlation between Hormonal Disturbance in PCOS Women and Serum Level of Kisspeptin

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Background. Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide that upregulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion. It is an essential element for the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge and ovulation.

Current Perspectives on Kisspeptins Role in Behaviour

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
The neuropeptide kisspeptin is now well-established as the master regulator of the mammalian reproductive axis. Beyond the hypothalamus, kisspeptin and its cognate receptor are also extensively distributed in extra-hypothalamic brain regions.

There is Kisspeptin – And Then There is Kisspeptin [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2015
While kisspeptin was initially found to function as a metastasis suppressor, after identification of its receptor KISS1R and their expression profiles in tissues such as the hypothalamus and adrenals, kisspeptin and KISS1R were predominantly assigned endocrine functions, including regulating puberty and fertility through their actions on hypothalamic ...
