The role of the kisspeptin receptor, KISS1R, in breast cancer cell proliferation, invasion and migration.
Kisspeptin receptor, also known as KISS1R, is the endogenous receptor for the ligand peptide, kisspeptin. It is a G-protein coupled receptor that couples through the Gαq/11 pathway. It has been shown that KISS1R activation by kisspeptin results in the activation of phospholipase C, calcium …

The Role of Neurokinin B in the Regulation of the Preovulatory LH Surge in Ewes
… GnRH neurons express the kisspeptin receptor (Kiss1r), indicating that kisspeptin can directly stimulate GnRH secretion. Two anatomically separate populations have been identified in the hypothalamus: one in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) and the other in the preoptic area (POA). Furthermore, ARC …

Role of obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus status on the expression of kisspeptin, inflammatory markers and other endocrine signals, and their correlation with foetal outcomes and placental structure
… Maternal obesity reduced placental Leptin and KISS1R gene expression in the absence of GDM. Overall, placental TNFα protein abundance by immunostaining was significantly higher in women with obesity irrespective of GDM status. TNFα staining of terminal villi syncytiotrophoblast was increased in …

Evaluation of the Hypothalamic Kisspeptin System Throughout the Estrous Cycle and During the Attainment of Puberty in Gilts
… Relative expression of hypothalamic Kiss1, Kiss1R, ER-alpha, ER-beta and beta-actin was determined using real-time reverse transcriptase PCR. Fold changes in relative expression were determined using the Relative Expression Software Tool. Relative expression of Kiss1 was increased (P=0.006) …
