Overview
Kisspeptin-10 (Kp-10) is a potent peptide derived from the human metastasis suppressor gene, recognized for its ability to suppress melanoma and breast cancer metastasis. This specific peptide, which spans residues 112 to 121, plays a critical role in the regulation of reproductive hormones, particularly during puberty. The signaling pathway activated by Kisspeptin-GPR54 is essential for triggering the secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the anterior pituitary, leading to elevated levels of growth hormone (GH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in the plasma. At AnaSpec, we offer Kisspeptin-10 (Kp-10) in a convenient 1 mg format, ideal for research and clinical applications.
