Evidence for liver health
Each row is an outcome related to liver health from a published study, strongest design first. Animal and cell results are labelled and are not human results. User reports are not counted as evidence here.
| Outcome | Result | Study type | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hepatic de novo lipogenesis | Kisspeptin reduced hepatic de novo lipogenesis of free fatty acids in steatotic mouse livers. | Animal · mouse (not a human result) | Cells 2025, PMID 40862768 |
| Hepatic steatosis | Deleting hepatic Kiss1r worsened steatosis; stimulating KISS1R protected against steatosis and reduced fibrosis in mice. | Animal · mouse (not a human result) | The Journal of clinical investigation 2022, PMID 35349482 |
| Liver antioxidant enzymes | Kisspeptin raised liver SOD and catalase activity (p < 0.05) in rats. | Animal · rat (not a human result)n = 24 | Cell biochemistry and function 2010, PMID 20517893 |
PubMed records for Kisspeptin-10 and liver health: 0 human, 3 animal (search counts, not studies we reviewed). Grades follow our evidence scale.
How strong is it?
A human randomized trial outweighs any number of animal studies. Animal and cell results show a mechanism worth testing, not that it works in people.
