ABSTRACT
[Summary] Kisspeptin is vital for the neuroendocrine regulation of GnRH secretion. Kisspeptin neurons are now recognized as a central pathway responsible for conveying key homeostatic information to GnRH neurons. A number of metabolic modulators have been proposed as regulators of kisspeptin including leptin, adiponectin, insulin, ghrelin, POMC, and neuropeptide Y. Recent data indicate that kisspeptin may have a direct role in regulating energy balance by its regulation of food intake and glucose homeostasis. Thus, kisspeptin may serve as a new connection between reproductive function and energy metabolism.
