What is Kisspeptin-10?
The signal that tells GnRH neurons to fire — the most upstream reproductive axis target.
Listed vial contents: 10mg. These are supplied quantities, not administration doses. Current pricing and availability are shown in the strength selector.
What mechanisms are being studied?
Kisspeptin-10 is the 10-amino acid C-terminal fragment of the 54-amino acid kisspeptin protein. It acts through KISS1R (GPR54) on hypothalamic GnRH neurons — the most upstream activator of the reproductive axis. It is the 'master switch' that initiates puberty and maintains adult reproductive function.
What are the research questions?
- Reproductive axis diagnostics: Superior diagnostic tool for assessing hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal integrity.
- IVF trigger (ovulation induction): Kisspeptin as an oocyte maturation trigger reduces the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) compared to HCG.
- Hypogonadism research: Studying upstream HPG axis activation for potential therapeutic applications.
- Puberty disorders: Research into precocious puberty and delayed puberty mechanisms.
What does the published work describe?
Dhillo WS et al. (JCEM 2005) — Robust, dose-dependent LH secretion in both sexes. Abbara A et al. (Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2015) — Kisspeptin-54 as IVF trigger: zero cases of OHSS (vs 7% with HCG).
What are the limits of this evidence?
The research described concerns the cited experimental materials and models, not proof that this supplied vial is a treatment. Cell or animal findings do not establish human benefits. Clinical findings, where cited, apply to the tested formulation and population; they do not validate this research product for human use.
