Chemical Information:
- Chemical Name: Kisspeptin-10
- Molecular Formula: C₆₁H₈₆N₁₆O₁₅
- Molecular Weight: ~1302.4 g/mol
Description:
Kisspeptin-10 is a decapeptide fragment derived from the KISS1 protein, known for its key role in regulating the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis. In research settings, it is widely used to study gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) activation and downstream luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion. Kisspeptin-10 peptide is essential in investigating reproductive endocrine signaling, pubertal development mechanisms, and hormonal feedback regulation under controlled laboratory conditions.
Research Applications:
- GnRH Secretion Studies: Used to investigate gonadotropin-releasing hormone activation and hypothalamic signaling pathways.
- Reproductive Hormone Regulation Research: Examines LH and FSH release and endocrine feedback mechanisms.
- Puberty & Developmental Biology Studies: Used in research on onset of puberty and reproductive axis maturation.
- Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Gonadal (HPG) Axis Research: Investigates central hormonal control of reproductive function.
Storage and Handling:
- Store at -20°C (long-term)
- Refrigerate at 2–8°C after reconstitution
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles
- Protect from light and moisture
Product Specifications:
- Appearance: White to off-white lyophilized powder
- Purity: ≥98% (HPLC)
