Central kisspeptin injection enhances food consumption in broiler chickens: role of opioidergic and dopaminergic receptors. [PDF]

Poult Sci
Kisspeptin, acting as both a neuropeptide and a hormone, known for its pivotal role in reproductive function and energy homeostasis, exerts multifaceted effects on central nervous system pathways involved in appetite regulation.

Receptor deorphanization in an echinoderm reveals kisspeptin evolution and relationship with SALMFamide neuropeptides [PDF]

, 2022
Background: Kisspeptins are neuropeptides that regulate reproductive maturation in mammals via G-protein-coupled receptor-mediated stimulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone secretion from the hypothalamus.

Arcuate kisspeptin neurons display two types of calcium events: Regulation by sex, gonads, and senktide. [PDF]

J Neuroendocrinol
Abstract The pattern of gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) release controls reproduction in vertebrates and is regulated by feedback from the gonads. Evidence is accumulating that steroid‐sensitive hypothalamic arcuate kisspeptin–neurokinin B–dynorphin (KNDy) neurons drive GnRH pulses.

Roundup in the Reproduction of Crucian Carp (Carassius carassius): An In Vitro Effect on the Pituitary Gland and Ovary

Animals, 2022
Roundup, the most popular herbicide in global agriculture, is regarded as an endocrine disruptor causing alterations of important hormones at the hypothalamic−pituitary−gonadal axis as well as impairment of gametogenesis.

Food deprivation differentially modulates gene expression of LPXRFa and kisspeptin systems in the brain-pituitary axis of half-smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis)

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
LPXRFa, also known as gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), and kisspeptin (Kiss) are two major hypothalamic peptides that modulate the reproductive axis of vertebrates, including teleosts. However, little information is available regarding the actions

Spexin and a Novel Cichlid-Specific Spexin Paralog Both Inhibit FSH and LH Through a Specific Galanin Receptor (Galr2b) in Tilapia

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Spexin (SPX) is a 14 amino acid peptide hormone that has pleiotropic functions across vertebrates, one of which is involvement in the brain-pituitary-gonad axis of fish.
