Kisspeptin-10 5mg – ≥99% Purity Research Peptide
What is Kisspeptin-10?
Kisspeptin-10, also known as metastin(45-54), is a potent neuropeptide derived from the KISS1 gene. It acts as a key regulator in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, stimulating the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).
Researchers worldwide use Kisspeptin-10 in vitro to study puberty onset, fertility regulation, and hormonal feedback mechanisms.
Our Kisspeptin-10 is synthesized via state-of-the-art solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), guaranteeing exceptional sequence fidelity and bioactivity.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Kisspeptin-10 differ from longer kisspeptin fragments (KP-54, KP-14, etc.)?
Kisspeptin-10 is the C-terminal decapeptide and represents the minimal sequence required for full agonist activity at the kisspeptin receptor (KISS1R/GPR54). It offers equivalent potency to longer fragments but with lower molecular complexity, making it preferred for many receptor and signaling studies.
