Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide studied in reproductive endocrine signalling research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKisspeptin is the product of the KISS1 gene, and its name has an odd origin: the gene was identified in Hershey, Pennsylvania, and named after the chocolate. It is one of the few peptides in research use whose naming has nothing to do with its structure or function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts described role sits upstream in the reproductive endocrine axis, acting on neurons that regulate gonadotropin-releasing hormone. That upstream position is what makes it of interest, since a signal at that level influences a cascade rather than a single output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gene was originally investigated in an entirely different context before its role in this axis was recognised, which is a common pattern in peptide research and a reminder that the name a sequence carries often reflects where it was found rather than what it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudies using it concern neuroendocrine communication and the regulation of reproductive signalling pathways in animal and cell-culture models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey research areas\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReproductive endocrine axis signalling research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKISS1 gene product characterisation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeuroendocrine communication models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpstream regulatory cascade studies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReceptor interaction assays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e lyophilized powder in a sealed research vial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes available:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5mg and 10mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack options:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 vial, 3 vials, or 10 pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRelated endocrine research peptides\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther endocrine-signalling sequences stocked here include \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hcg\"\u003eHCG\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/oxytocin\"\u003eOxytocin\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sermorelin\"\u003eSermorelin\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere does the name come from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the KISS1 gene, itself named after the chocolate made in the town where the gene was identified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat sizes are stocked?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVials in 5 mg and 10 mg.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Horizon Peptides","offers":[{"title":"5mg \/ 1 Vial","offer_id":50810694303969,"sku":"HP-KISSPEPTIN-5MG-1","price":59.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5mg \/ 3 Vials","offer_id":50810694336737,"sku":"HP-KISSPEPTIN-5MG-3","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5mg \/ 10 Vials","offer_id":50810694369505,"sku":"HP-KISSPEPTIN-5MG-10","price":419.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10mg \/ 1 Vial","offer_id":50810694402273,"sku":"HP-KISSPEPTIN-10MG-1","price":99.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10mg \/ 3 Vials","offer_id":50810694435041,"sku":"HP-KISSPEPTIN-10MG-3","price":254.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10mg \/ 10 Vials","offer_id":50810694467809,"sku":"HP-KISSPEPTIN-10MG-10","price":699.9,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0859\/2182\/4993\/files\/hp-kisspeptin.webp?v=1791438962","url":"https:\/\/horizonpeptides.ca\/products\/kisspeptin","provider":"Horizon Peptides","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
