Kisspeptin-10, Human

Kisspeptin-10 is the minimal highly active C-terminal fragment of kisspeptin and a potent agonist of KISS1R/GPR54. It is widely used to study GnRH release, puberty and reproductive neuroendocrinology.

• neuroendocrine signaling
• GPCR and hormone-receptor pharmacology
• metabolic and feeding studies
• reproductive or gastrointestinal research

Exact species, terminal amidation, disulfide connectivity and post-translational modifications such as ghrelin acylation define the reagent and can strongly alter biological activity.
