Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine and metabolic disorder affecting women in reproductive age. Women with PCOS exhibit 2-3x higher levels of circulating Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) as compared to healthy women and it is unclear if the elevation of AMH is a bystander effect or is driving the condition. Moreover, PCOS has a strong heritable component, however the etiopathology of the disease and the mechanisms underlying its transmission remain t...

Background: Kisspeptin is a critical activator of hypothalamic GnRH neurons and is essential for reproductive health. Emerging data reveals that kisspeptin-based therapeutics have substantial potential to treat reproductive, psychosexual and bone disorders. However, current delivery is limited to the subcutaneous or intravenous routes, presenting barriers to development. Alternative routes of administration would overcome this and capitalise on the benefits of kisspeptin-based...
