Kisspeptin Activates Ankrd 26 Gene Expression in Migrating Embryonic GnRH Neurons [PDF]
Kisspeptin, a newly discovered neuropeptide regulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). Kisspeptins are a large RF-amide family of peptides. The kisspeptin coded by kiss1 gene is a 145-amino acid- protein that is cleaved to C-terminal peptide ...

Hyperalgesic Activity of Kisspeptin in Mice
Background: Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide known for its role in the hypothalamic regulation of the reproductive axis. Following the recent description of kisspeptin and its 7-TM receptor, GPR54, in the dorsal root ganglia and dorsal horns of the spinal cord, we examined the role of kisspeptin in the regulation of pain sensitivity in mice.

THE KISSPEPTIN SYSTEM AND HUMAN REPRODUCTION
Kisspeptin is a hypothalamic neuropeptide encoded by the KISS1 gene that regulates the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. It controls the pulsatile secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH).

The antidepressant-like effects of kisspeptin-10 are reversed by kisspeptin antagonist peptide 234 in male rats [PDF]
Kisspeptins are reported to be the most potent activators of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis known to date. Kisspeptin potently elicits gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release and luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion, even in the pre ...

Serum kisspeptin levels in Korean girls with central precocious puberty [PDF]
Central precocious puberty (CPP) is caused by premature activation of hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion. Kisspeptin and G-protein coupled receptor-54 system is the essential gatekeeper of the reproductive system, playing a key ...

A kisspeptin-10 analog with greater in vivo bioactivity than kisspeptin-10
The kisspeptins are neuropeptides that stimulate the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. The smallest endogenous kisspeptin, kisspeptin-10 (KP-10), binds to the receptor KISS1R with a similar affinity to the full-length peptide, kisspeptin-54 (KP-54), but is less effective in vivo, possibly because of increased enzymatic breakdown or clearance ...

Functional studies of kisspeptin analogues and the human kisspeptin receptor
Kisspeptins and their cognate receptor, the kisspeptin receptor, play pivotal roles in the regulation of the development of puberty and cancer metastasis. However, the signalling pathways activated by kisspeptins and the kisspeptin receptor remain largely to be demonstrated.

Advances in the study of neuroendocrinological regulation of kisspeptin in fish reproduction [PDF]
Kisspeptin, a key factor in the neuroendocrinological regulation of animal reproduction, is a peptide product encoded by kiss genes, which act as the natural ligand of GPR54.

Elevated kisspeptin concentrations do not reflect ICU-survival.
(a) Serum levels of kisspeptin at admission to the ICU were similar in patients that survived ICU treatment and patients that succumbed to death during ICU treatment.
