Kisspeptins, encoded by the KISS1 gene, are a family of polypeptides that bind the
kisspeptin receptor (KISS1R) to perform biological functions. Produced mainly in the …

Background: The KISS1/KISS1R system has been implicated in the physiology of
reproduction and many studies have documented the stimulatory effect of kisspeptin on …

Kisspeptin (a product of the KISS1 gene and its receptor) plays an important role in
obstetrics, gynecology, and cancer cell metastasis and behavior. In hypothalamic-pituitary …

Objective Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide that belongs to the Rfamide family. It is known for its
crucial role in regulating the onset of puberty. In addition it also regulates sex hormone …

Kisspeptins, the products of KiSS-1 gene, and their receptor, GPR54, have recently emerged
as essential gatekeepers of reproduction, mainly through regulation of GnRH secretion at …

Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide that was originally discovered in 1996 from a metastasis
tumour suppressor gene, KISS1 and was appropriately named metastin. More recently, the …

Kisspeptins, a family of neuropeptides encoded by the Kiss1 gene that are mainly expressed
in discrete neuronal populations of the hypothalamus, have recently emerged as essential …

Kisspeptins are a family of neuropeptides that are critical for initiating puberty and regulating
ovulation in sexually mature females via the central control of the hypothalamic–pituitary …

We were lucky to get into the kisspeptin “fi eld” during its early days, though we had different
avenues of entry. In early 2004, Sasha was a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Emilie Rissman's lab …

Kisspeptin and its G protein-coupled receptor KISS1R play key roles in mammalian
reproduction due to their involvement in the onset of puberty and control of the hypothalamic …
