Abstract
Diseases associated with disorders of sexual development, the reproductive system, delayed of puberty onset are of high relevance. This negatively affect the health of young people, the demographic indicators, fertility and require a search for therapy. This review presents current data on the role of the kisspeptin ligand-receptor system KISS/KISS1R, the discovery of which was of revolutionary significance for deciphering the genesis of neuroendocrine regulation of the reproductive system.A review and analysis of clinical and experimental research from recent decades, aimed at studying kisspeptin and its agonists as a potential therapeutic approach. Data are presented on the positive effect of kisspeptin on the pulse secretion of GnRH and gonadotropins, which can be used in the treatment of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, ovulation disorders and other diseases of the reproductive system. Outside the human hypothalamus, kisspeptin and its receptor are expressed in the brain in key limbic and paralimbic regions, and in peripheral tissues. We summarise data on the pharmacological use of kisspeptin in reproductive disorders and fertility treatment, as well as its putative utility in hypoactive sexual desire disorder, osteoporosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, now known as metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease.
