Overview:
Kisspeptin is a naturally occurring neuropeptide hormone encoded by the KISS1 gene and studied for its central role in regulating reproductive hormone secretion, puberty onset, and fertility signaling. It acts as a critical upstream modulator of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis, making it a key compound in endocrine and reproductive research.
Mechanism of Action:
Kisspeptin binds to the GPR54 (KISS1R) receptor in the hypothalamus, stimulating the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). This activation increases the downstream secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland, which together regulate gonadal function and steroidogenesis. Research indicates that Kisspeptin serves as the primary trigger for puberty onset and reproductive hormone control, integrating signals from metabolic and environmental cues.
