Kisspeptin-10 is a 10-amino-acid peptide derived from the C-terminal region of the kisspeptin protein (encoded by the KISS1 gene), and is the endogenous ligand for the GPR54 receptor. It has attracted growing interest in research focused on reproductive health, puberty onset, and hormonal regulatihttps://www.hkpepmed.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1111&action=editon.
Studies have shown that Kisspeptin-10 activates the GPR54 receptor in the hypothalamus, stimulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release, which in turn promotes luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion. It plays a critical role in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. It may also play a role in fertility research, hypogonadism treatment, puberty disorders, and reproductive endocrinology studies.
