“…Kisspeptin-13 has been detected in peripheral plasma (Horikoshi et al 2003, Panidis et al 2006, where its levels correlate negatively with fasting plasma insulin levels (Panidis et al 2006). Plasma kisspeptin concentrations are in the picomolar range, much lower than the concentrations employed in this study.…”

“…Consistent with our findings, Panidis et al 18 observed a negative correlation between BMI and plasma kisspeptin levels in women with PCOS. These findings contrast with the significant positive correlation be-tween BMI and visceral adipose tissue KISS1 mRNA levels in adult women as observed by Cockwell et al 19 Experimental studies have further confirmed that kisspeptin is expressed in adipose tissue and that kisspeptin receptors in adipose tissue are exposed, under some circumstances, to circulating kisspeptin.…”

“…In a recent work, Kanasaki et al 7 found no correlation of serum kisspeptin levels with levels of LH and FSH in normally menstruating women, pregnant women, postmenopausal women, patients with premature ovarian failure or idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Similarly, Panidis et al 18 reported no significant correlation between plasma kisspeptin and LH levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and controls.…”

“…In addition, Panidis et al (2006) reported raised levels of KP-54 in normal-weight subjects with polycystic ovary syndrome, which correlates with its association with leptin and obesity. However, these results should be interpreted with caution owing to the different assays used.…”
