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

Targeting hepatic kisspeptin receptor ameliorates nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in a mouse model
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most common liver disease, has become a silent worldwide pandemic. The incidence of NAFLD correlates with the rise in obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome.

Investigating the KNDy hypothesis in humans by co-administration of kisspeptin, neurokinin B and naltrexone in men [PDF]
Context: A subpopulation of hypothalamic neurons co-localise three neuropeptides namely kisspeptin, neurokinin B (NKB) and dynorphin collectively termed KNDy neurons. Animal studies suggest they interact to affect pulsatile GnRH release (KNDy hypothesis);

Significance The arcuate nucleus (ARC) of the mediobasal hypothalamus is critically involved in hormonal communication from ovary to brain. Negative estrogen feedback to kisspeptin synthesizing neurons of the ARC is a crucial determinant of hypothalamic ...

The Effects of 5-Hydroxytryptamine and Interaction With Kisspeptin in Controlling Ghrelin and Adiponectin Secretion [PDF]
Introduction: 5-Hydroxytryptamine (5HT) and kisspeptin are satiety factors, and ghrelin and adiponectin are orexigenic peptides. In this study, the mediating role of 5HT in the effects of GPR54 receptor blocking on ghrelin and adiponectin secretion was ...

Kisspeptin Overcomes GnRH Neuronal Suppression Secondary to Hyperprolactinemia in Humans
Context Hyperprolactinemia suppresses gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-induced luteinizing hormone (LH) pulses. The hypothalamic neuropeptide kisspeptin potently stimulates the secretion of GnRH. The effects of exogenous kisspeptin administration on

The Role of the Brain in the Pathogenesis and Physiology of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). [PDF]
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrine disorder, affecting at least 10% of women of reproductive age. PCOS is typically characterized by the presence of at least two of the three cardinal features of hyperandrogenemia (high ...

Opioidergic pathways and kisspeptin in the regulation of female reproduction in mammals
Endogenous opioid peptides have attracted attention as critical neuropeptides in the central mechanism regulating female reproduction ever since the discovery that arcuate dynorphin neurons that coexpress kisspeptin and neurokinin B (NKB), which are also
