Lower circulating kisspeptin and primary hypogonadism in men with type 2 diabetes
Introduction Kisspeptin influence on male androgens is partially understood. We aimed to evaluate serum concentrations of kisspeptin among Ghanaian men with type 2 diabetes and to identify related factors that may contribute to altering circulating ...

Afferent Neuronal Control of Type-I Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Neurons in the Human. [PDF]
Understanding the regulation of the human menstrual cycle represents an important ultimate challenge of reproductive neuroendocrine research. However, direct translation of information from laboratory animal experiments to the human is often complicated ...

Morphine Attenuates Testosterone Response to Central Injection of Kisspeptin in Male Rats [PDF]
Background Kisspeptin and naloxone stimulate the reproductive axis while morphine inhibits its function. We have investigated the effect of central injection of kisspeptin-10 on mean plasma testosterone concentration in morphine or naloxone pretreated

Effect of Peripheral Administration of Kisspeptin-10 on Dynamic LH Secretion in Prepubertal Ewes [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to clarify the effect of kisspeptin-10 on LH secretion in prepubertal ewes. In experiment 1, prepubertal ewes fitted with indwelling jugular catheters were randomly assigned to receive 0, 0.5, 1 or 2 mg of kisspeptin-10 ...

Estrogen regulation of the molecular phenotype and active translatome of AVPV kisspeptin neurons.
In females, ovarian estradiol (E2) exerts both negative and positive feedback regulation on the neural circuits governing reproductive hormone secretion, but the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying this remain poorly understood.

Substance P regulates puberty onset and fertility in the female mouse [PDF]
Puberty is a tightly regulated process that leads to reproductive capacity. Kiss1 neurons are crucial in this process by stimulating GnRH, yet how Kiss1 neurons are regulated remains unknown. Substance P (SP), an important neuropeptide in pain perception,

Serum kisspeptin levels mainly depend on ovarian expression of Kiss1 mRNA in female rats
The hypothalamic kisspeptin/KISS1 receptor system is essential for puberty onset and reproductive development. Although serum kisspeptin might be associated with puberty, its levels, according to developmental stage, and its origin still remain unclear ...

The "ram effect": new insights into neural modulation of the gonadotropic axis by male odors and socio-sexual interactions [PDF]
Reproduction in mammals is controlled by the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis under the influence of external and internal factors such as photoperiod, stress, nutrition, and social interactions.

Concentration–QTc Modeling to Support Clinical Development of Fezolinetant
Abstract Fezolinetant is a non‐hormonal, selective neurokinin‐3 receptor antagonist that blocks neurokinin B activation of kisspeptin/neurokinin B/dynorphin neurons to thereby modulate neuronal activity in the thermoregulatory center. Fezolinetant has been approved in many regions, including North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia for the treatment ...
