The brains of males and females differ anatomically and physiologically, including sex
differences in neurone size or number, synapse morphology and specific patterns of gene …

Kisspeptins, encoded by the Kiss1 gene, and their canonical receptor, GPR54 (also termed
Kiss1R), are unanimously recognised as essential regulators of puberty onset and …

Kisspeptin, encoded by Kiss1, stimulates reproduction. In rodents, one Kiss1 population
resides in the hypothalamic anterior ventral periventricular nucleus and neighboring rostral …

In rodents, kisspeptin-expressing neurons are localized in 2 hypothalamic brain nuclei
(anteroventral periventricular nucleus/periventricular nucleus continuum [AVPv/PeN] and …

Kisspeptin (Kiss1) neurons provide indispensable excitatory input to gonadotropin-releasing
hormone (GnRH) neurons, which is important for the coordinated release of gonadotropins …

The neuropeptide kisspeptin, encoded by Kiss1, regulates reproduction by stimulating
GnRH secretion. Neurons synthesizing kisspeptin are predominantly located in the …

Kisspeptin is a potent activator of GnRH-induced gonadotropin secretion and is a proposed
central regulator of pubertal onset. In mice, there is a neuroanatomical separation of two …

The neuropeptide kisspeptin is a potent stimulator of GnRH neurons and has been
implicated as a major regulator of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis. There are mainly …

Kisspeptins, derived from the Kiss1 gene play a central role in activation of the hypothalamo-
pituitary gonadal (HPG) axis via stimulation of GnRH neurons. Both Kiss1 and Kiss1R …

The Kiss1 gene codes for kisspeptins, which have been implicated in the neuroendocrine
regulation of reproduction. In the brain, Kiss1 mRNA-expressing neurons are located in the …
