Abstract:
Kisspeptin id the peptide molecule synthesised naturally in the animals’ body. The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal (HPG) axis controls all stages of reproduction. Kisspeptins are several structurally related amidated peptides, which are derived from the differential proteolytic processing of a common precursor of 145 amino acids encoded by the KISS1 gene. Recent studies found that it can turn on productions of LH mainly after stimulating secretion of GnRH and help in oocyte maturation and ovulation. This can help in improvement of farm economy by establishing better reproductive traits. This review describes mode of action of kisspeptins and its application in animal reproduction.
