New understandings of the genetic basis of isolated idiopathic central hypogonadism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is a rare disease that is characterized by delayed/absent puberty and/or infertility due to an insufficient stimulation of an otherwise normal pituitary-gonadal axis by gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH ...

Hyperoside Modulates the Estrogen‐PI3K/VEGF Axis to Ameliorate Oxidative Damage‐Induced Inhibition of Bone Formation in MC3T3‐E1 Cells

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study explores the potential of hyperoside to activate the estrogen‐PI3K/VEGF axis, thereby suppressing oxidative stress and enhancing osteogenic differentiation to mitigate osteoporosis. The initial proposal of the estrogen‐PI3K/VEGF signaling pathway axis as a potential therapeutic approach for osteoporosis.

KISS1R and ANKRD31 Cooperate to Enhance Leydig Cell Gene Expression via the Cytoskeletal-Nucleoskeletal Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Kisspeptins are involved in the regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, Leydig cell functions, and testosterone secretion, acting as endogenous ligands of the KISS1 receptor.

The metastasis suppressor KISS1 lacks antimetastatic activity in the C8161.9 xenograft model of melanoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The objective of this study was to use the established xenograft model of human melanoma (C8161.9) to test a pharmacological approach to the effect of the metastasis suppressor KISS1. A KISS1 analog was used to inhibit the metastatic development of C8161.

Hypothalamic kisspeptin and kisspeptin receptors: Species variation in reproduction and reproductive behaviours

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroendocrinology, 2022
Kisspeptin, encoded by the KISS1 gene, was first discovered as a potential metastasis suppressor gene. The prepro-kisspeptin precursor is cleaved into shorter mature bioactive peptides of varying sizes that bind to the G protein-coupled receptor GPR54 (=KISS1R).

The Transcription Factors Six3 and Six6 in Neuromedin‐S Neurons Differentially Affect Circadian Rhythms

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience Research, Volume 104, Issue 4, April 2026.
Six3 and Six6 are necessary for the development of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), and both remain expressed after SCN neurogenesis. We implemented a Neuromedin‐S (NMS)‐cre mouse model to conditionally knockout either Six3 or Six6 from the SCN to determine the post‐proliferative roles of these transcription factors in hypothalamic and circadian ...

Controversial Role of Kisspeptins/KiSS-1R Signaling System in Tumor Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
KiSS-1 was first described as a metastasis suppressor gene in malignant melanoma. KiSS-1 encodes a 145 amino-acid residue peptide that is further processed, producing the 54 amino acid metastin and shorter peptides collectively named kisspeptins (KPs ...

The effect of ghrelin on Kiss-1 and KissR gene transcription and insulin secretion in rat islets of Langerhans and CRI-D2 cell line [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2017
Objective(s): Ghrelin is a peptide hormone that has been shown to have numerous central and peripheral effects. The central effects including GH secretion, food intake, and energy homeostasis are partly mediated by Kiss1- KissR signaling pathway. Ghrelin

Kisspeptins, gonadotropins, and their receptors in the brain-pituitary-gonadal axis of Epinephelus akaara: Their relationship with oogonial proliferation and primary oocyte development

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2022
Previous studies have shown the regulation of follicle-stimulating hormone (Fshβ) and luteinizing hormone (Lhβ) during early ovarian differentiation and development from 30 to 160 days post-hatching (dph) in the red-spotted grouper.

Kisspeptin and Clinical Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The hypothalamic hormone GnRH has traditionally been viewed as a central driver of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Pulsatile GnRH release is required for pulsatile gonadotropin secretion, which then modulates gonadal steroid feedback and brings about full fertility in the adult.
