Kisspeptin-10 — KISS1R Agonist for Reproductive Neuroendocrinology Research
Kisspeptin-10 is the C-terminal decapeptide of the KISS1 gene product, a critical HPG axis regulator. Identified as GPR54 ligand by de Roux et al. and Seminara et al. (2003, NEJM). Loss-of-function KISS1R mutations cause hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
Mechanism of Action
Kisspeptin-10 binds KISS1R (GPR54), a Gq/11 receptor on GnRH neurons, triggering PLC-calcium mobilization and GnRH pulsatile secretion → LH and FSH release. Arcuate KNDy neurons generate the GnRH pulse essential for gonadotropin secretion.
Key Research Areas
- GnRH Pulse Generator: Critical component of the GnRH pulse generator via arcuate KNDy neurons (kisspeptin + neurokinin B + dynorphin).
- Puberty Research: Kisspeptin signaling increases dramatically at puberty — study neuroendocrine mechanisms of pubertal GnRH activation.
- Fertility and Ovulation: Triggers LH surges comparable to ovulation requirements, studying positive estrogen feedback on HPG axis.
- Metabolic-Reproductive Integration: Kisspeptin neurons receive leptin, insulin, and glucose inputs — nexus for energy-reproductive competence research.
