About this compound

Kisspeptin is a peptide encoded by the KISS1 gene and the natural ligand of KISS1R, the G protein coupled receptor formerly known as GPR54. It belongs to the receptor-binding RFamide peptide class.

In the published preclinical literature, kisspeptin has been characterised at the molecular and cellular level as an agonist at the KISS1R (GPR54) receptor: in cell-based assays it binds and activates the receptor and engages phospholipase C, calcium, and MAP-kinase signalling, and in rodent brain-slice electrophysiology it acts on the ion channels of gonadotropin-releasing-hormone neurons. It is supplied as a research compound and is not intended for human or veterinary use.

Research

Kisspeptin has been characterised in preclinical laboratory models. The primary studies below, in cultured cells and in rodent brain-slice electrophysiology, measured receptor-binding and receptor-activation endpoints at the KISS1R (GPR54) receptor and the ion-channel behaviour of gonadotropin-releasing-hormone neurons. The literature is preclinical; it describes the compound, not any outcome in humans.

Receptor binding and activation


In vitro
The metastasis suppressor gene KiSS-1 encodes kisspeptins, the natural ligands of the orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR54
Kotani et al. · 2001 · Journal of Biological Chemistry
In Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing GPR54, the study measured low-nanomolar binding of kisspeptin to the receptor and quantified receptor activation as PIP2 hydrolysis, calcium mobilisation, arachidonic-acid release, and ERK1/2 and p38 MAP-kinase phosphorylation as molecular endpoints.

Ion-channel mechanism in neurons


Animal model
Kisspeptin excites gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons through a phospholipase C and calcium-dependent pathway regulating multiple ion channels
Liu et al. · 2008 · Endocrinology
In acute brain slices from transgenic mice, perforated-patch electrophysiology and calcium imaging recorded the firing of gonadotropin-releasing-hormone neurons and mapped the kisspeptin response to a phospholipase C and calcium-dependent pathway acting on multiple ion channels as electrophysiological endpoints.

Animal model
Kisspeptin depolarizes gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons through activation of TRPC-like cationic channels
Zhang et al. · 2008 · Journal of Neuroscience
In mouse brain slices, voltage-clamp and current-clamp recordings measured a concentration-dependent depolarisation of gonadotropin-releasing-hormone neurons, with the underlying current traced to the inhibition of inwardly rectifying potassium channels and the activation of TRPC-like cationic channels as measured endpoints.
