Kisspeptin-10 Research Peptide
Kisspeptin-10 (KP-10) is the amidated C-terminal decapeptide shared by biologically active kisspeptins. It is an endogenous ligand at the kisspeptin receptor, KISS1R/GPR54, and is used experimentally to investigate receptor signalling and hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal-axis biology.
Research involving reproductive hormones is biologically complex and model dependent. Published acute-response studies do not establish a general treatment or self-use protocol.

Kisspeptin-10 Research Context
KP-10 has been examined in receptor assays, primary cell systems and controlled physiology studies measuring GnRH and gonadotrophin responses. Its C-terminal RF-amide sequence is essential to KISS1R activity.
Responses vary with species, hormonal environment, exposure pattern and experimental design. The supplied material is not intended for diagnosis, fertility treatment or any other clinical application.
Storage and Handling
Keep unopened lyophilised material at approximately -20°C for long-term storage or 2-8°C for short-term laboratory storage. Protect from light, moisture and repeated temperature changes.
Kisspeptin-10 Research FAQs
What is Kisspeptin-10?
It is the ten-amino-acid amidated C-terminal fragment common to active kisspeptins.
Which receptor does it target?
KP-10 is an agonist at KISS1R, also known as GPR54.
Is KP-10 the same as kisspeptin-54?
No. They share the active C-terminal sequence, but kisspeptin-54 is a longer peptide with different pharmacokinetic behaviour.
What has been measured in published research?
Studies have examined receptor activation, GnRH signalling and acute LH/FSH responses under controlled experimental conditions.
How is purity verified?
Each current batch is independently HPLC tested above 99%, with the matching report available through batch verification.
Is it supplied for fertility or hormone treatment?
No. It is supplied strictly as a laboratory research compound.
