As of January 2023, our "Journal of Controversies Obstetrics & Gynecology and Pediatrics" has been published under the Medihealth Academy to publish all articles, reviews and case reports on Pediatrics, especially in the field of Obstetrics and Gynecology. In order to facilitate the citation of the articles, to take our place in internationally respected indexes and to reach a wider readership, we will pay attention to the fact that our article language is only English in terms of acceptance. This journal is indexed by indices that are considered international scientific journal indices (DRJI, ESJI, OAJI, etc.). According to the current Associate Professorship criteria, it is within the scope of International Article 1-d. Each article published in this journal corresponds to 5 points.

What do we know about kisspeptin?
Kisspeptins are a group of peptide fragments that are expressed by the neurons of the hypothalamus mainly in the arcuate, dorsal-medial and antero ventricular, periventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus besides the amygdala.1 Initially, Kisspeptin via its G protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54) was introduced to have an important role in cancer biology with its metastasis suppression effect. In light of recent research, Kisspeptin is found to have a major role in the neuroendocrine reproductive axis through the Kisspeptin 1 (KISS1) gene. The KISS1 gene that encodes Kisspeptin was first discovered in 1996 by researchers from the United States of America. Kisspeptinreceptors are also expressed by the same neurons. Kisspeptin has a pivotal role in reproduction through the hypothalamic-hypophysial axis while exerting an extra hypothalamic function on sexual and emotional behavior.
