Description Kisspeptin-10 is a biologically active decapeptide derived from the longer kisspeptin precursor, part of the KISS1 gene family. It binds to the GPR54 receptor (also known as KISS1R), which is critically involved in the stimulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion from the hypothalamus. This action triggers the downstream release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the…
Description Melanotan II is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide that mimics the activity of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) by binding to melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1R. It has been extensively studied for its melanogenic effects, primarily increasing melanin synthesis in skin cells, leading to enhanced pigmentation. In addition to its role in skin photoprotection, Melanotan II has shown activity at other melanocortin…
