“…Kisspeptin has been identified in homologous regions of the brain in monkey (Shahab et al, 2005; Ringel et al, 2002;Bilban et al, 2004;Irwig et al, 2004;Navarro et al, 2004a;Mead et al, 2007bMead et al, al., 2007Ramaswamy et al, 2008), sheep (Estrada et al, 2006Franceschini et al, 2006;, horse (Decourt et al, 2008;Magee et al, 2009), hamster (Paul et al, 2009), goat pig (Tomikawa et al, 2010). Kisspeptin has also been found to be expressed in frog and fish species (Biran et al, 2008;Felip et al, 2008;Kanda et al, 2008;van Aerle et al, 2008;Carrillo et al, 2009;Kitahashi et al, 2009;Li et al, 2009;Yang et al, 2010), suggesting that the kisspeptin system has been conserved during evolution.…”
