Introduction: Kisspeptins, the products of the Kiss1 gene that act via the receptor, GPR54 (or Kiss1R), are pivotal elements in the neuroendocrine control of GnRH neurons and, thereby, gonadotropin secretion. Extensive efforts have been devoted recently to elucidate the pharmacological effects and major putative regulators of the kisspeptin system. Yet, our knowledge on the potential interactions of kisspeptins with other key neurotransmitters involved in the central re...
