tcsc0042373 Kisspeptin-10 Trifluoroacetate

Kisspeptin-10 Trifluoroacetate is the trifluoroacetate salt form of Kisspeptin-10. Kisspeptin-10, the minimal kisspeptin sequence with biological activity, is a potent endogenous ligand for GPR54.

IC50 & Target: Target: GPR54^[1][2]

In Vitro: Kisspeptin-10 is the minimal kisspeptin sequence with full intrinsic bioactivity. Kisspeptins are a family of peptides encoded by the Kiss1 gene and are the natural ligands of the orphan g protein-coupled receptor GPR54^[1]. Kisspeptins act as the principal positive regulator of the reproductive axis by directly stimulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuron activity. Kisspeptin-10 also has a direct stimulating effect on luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion in bovine anterior pituitary (AP) cells^[2]. Different concentrations of Kisspeptin-10 have distinct effects on migration and proliferation of endothelial cells. Migration and proliferation of endothelial cells are increased at lower concentration of Kisspeptin-10 specially at 100 nM while higher concentration reduced both migration and proliferation^[3].

In Vivo: Intravenous infusion of kisspeptin-10 (7.5, 35, and 100 nM) induces a dose-dependent increase in LH secretion. The stimulatory effect of kisspeptin-10 (100 n nM) on LH secretion is blocked by the GnRH antagonist cetrorelix, precluding a singular action on gonadotropes^[4]. Kisspeptin-10 inhibits angiogenesis in vivo. Kp-10 inhibits tumor growth in SCID mice xenografted with human prostate cancer cells (PC-3) through inhibiting tumor angiogenesis^[5].
