What it is
Kisspeptin-10 is the shortest active fragment of the kisspeptin peptides encoded by the KISS1 gene. Acting on the KISS1R receptor, it is a key regulator of GnRH neurons and a reference compound in reproductive neuroendocrinology.
Where it has been studied
- GnRH neuron activation
- Puberty and fertility models
- Metastasis-suppressor (metastin) biology
