Byline: Fazal Wahab, Tanzeela Riaz, Latafat Amin Khan, Jerome Leprince, Hubert Vaudry, Manuel Tena-Sempere and Muhammad Shahab Abstract: Kisspeptin (KP), a family (belonging to the RFamide superfamily of peptides) of related-peptide hormones encoded by the KISS1 gene, is recently identified as the major player in the neuroendocrine regulation of the mammalian reproduction. Despite the well established role of KP in mammals not much is known about their action in non-mammalian species especially in the avian reproductive physiology. Therefore, the present study was designed to examine the effect of peripheral administration of human kisspeptin-10 (KP10) on the plasma testosterone (T) concentration in the broiler breeder birds. Three different doses (11.5, 23, 38-nmol; intravenous injection) of KP10 were tested in the intact adult male broiler breeder birds under normal fed conditions. In addition, hCG (30IU) and vehicle (0.5 ml) were administered for control purposes. A single dose (38-nmol) of human 26RFamide (26RFa; another member of RFamide superfamily) was also tested.
