Kisspeptin-10
hormonal compound
Kisspeptin-10 is a potent synthetic peptide agonist that serves as a key regulator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. It acts to initiate gonadotropin-releasing hormone pulsatility, thereby modulating essential reproductive endocrine signaling.
Research Areas
Mechanism of Action
Kisspeptin-10 functions as a high-affinity agonist for the KISS1R (GPR54) receptor, triggering the upstream activation of the hypothalamic GnRH pulse generator to stimulate luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone release.
