Overview
Kisspeptin-10 is the shortest fully active fragment of kisspeptin, the KISS1 gene product that signals through the KISS1R (GPR54) receptor. Since the 2003 discovery that KISS1R mutations cause hypogonadotropic phenotypes, kisspeptin has been recognized as the master upstream regulator of GnRH neurons and the reproductive axis.
Researchers use kisspeptin-10 to probe GnRH pulse generation, LH and FSH secretion dynamics, and puberty-onset signaling in preclinical models. These are preclinical observations that do not establish clinical efficacy; its decapeptide size combines full receptor potency with straightforward synthesis and handling.
BioTech Pharma supplies kisspeptin-10 as a lyophilized powder for laboratory research use only. Lot-specific analytical documentation may be available and should be confirmed for the applicable material.

Analytical Data
Lot-specific documentation may be available for the applicable material and must be confirmed per enquiry. Where available, it may include:
- HPLC purity result
- LC-MS identity confirmation
- Appearance
- Net content
Request the records you need with your quote and we will confirm availability for your batch.
Procurement Details
Availability, lead time, salt / content basis, and cold-chain requirements depend on the specific lot and quantity, so we confirm them per enquiry rather than publishing fixed figures. Request confirmation for your requirements with your quote and our team will respond with details for the applicable batch.
Storage & Handling
Lyophilized: store at −20 °C, protected from light. Reconstituted: keep at 2–8 °C and determine working-solution stability empirically per lot, as reconstituted stability varies with diluent, concentration, and handling.
