Kisspeptin (Research-Grade Peptide)

Neuropeptide & Reproductive Axis Modulator — for laboratory research only

Product Overview

Kisspeptin is a naturally occurring neuropeptide encoded by the KISS1 gene, studied extensively for its role in regulating the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis. It acts via the GPR54 receptor (KISS1R), influencing the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). Each vial contains high-purity lyophilized peptide (COA provided). Store at –20 °C and reconstitute before use following lab best practices.
