KissPeptin 10mg Research Peptide
Kisspeptin (Kiss1 peptide) is an endogenous neuropeptide encoded by the KISS1 gene that acts as the primary upstream regulator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis through activation of the KISS1R (GPR54) receptor on GnRH neurons. It is the most potent known endogenous stimulator of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion, making it a fundamental research tool for reproductive endocrinology, neuroendocrinology, and fertility research. This 10mg vial provides research-grade kisspeptin at ≥99% purity, HPLC and MS/MS verified per batch.
Research Background
Kisspeptin’s identification as the gatekeeper of puberty onset and reproductive function — loss-of-function mutations in KISS1R cause hypogonadotropic hypogonadism — has made it a cornerstone compound in reproductive neuroendocrinology research. Published human studies have explored kisspeptin administration for diagnosing and treating hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, stimulating LH and FSH secretion in anovulatory women, and investigating hypothalamic regulation of the pubertal transition. Beyond reproduction, research has documented kisspeptin’s roles in metabolic regulation, cancer metastasis suppression (the original context of its discovery as a metastasis suppressor gene product), and emotional processing.
