Research background
Kisspeptin-10 is the C-terminal decapeptide fragment of kisspeptin, the endogenous ligand of the KISS1R (GPR54) receptor and a key upstream regulator of gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Research examines its role in reproductive neuroendocrinology.
Clinical investigation has used kisspeptin-10 as a research probe of reproductive-axis function; it has no approved indication.
