Is KP-54 the same as kisspeptin-54?
Yes. KP-54 is the other name listed on this site's kisspeptin-54 profile, along with metastin. It names the same 54-building-block peptide used in the IVF egg-trigger studies (60 women, with eggs matured in 95%; a second-dose study in 62 women). It is not KP-10 and not kisspeptin-10. The letters are a lab short name, not an approval. Full record at /compounds/kisspeptin-54.
