Kisspeptin-10 stimulates gonadotropin release in both male and female rodents. However, few studies have investigated the effects of kisspeptin-10 on gonadotropin release in humans, and none have investigated the effect in women. If kisspeptin is to be useful for treating reproductive disease, its effects in both men and women must be established.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Aim:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>To compare the effects of kisspeptin-10 administration on reproductive hormone release in healthy men and women.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Intravenous bolus kisspeptin-10 was administered to men and women (n = 4\u20135 per group).
