Results from this study2

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured2

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

  1. 01HumanEndogenous levelObservational studyOther

    In breast carcinomas from African American women, KISS1 protein expression was higher in receptor-negative and triple-negative breast cancer than in other subtypes.

    In plain wordsIn breast tumors from African American women, the body's own KISS1 was higher in triple-negative tumors than in other subtypes.

    Summary
    KISS1 protein expression was found to be higher in receptor-negative and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) compared to other subtypes (p<0.001).

    Tissue microarrays were constructed from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded surgical blocks from 216 AA patients.

    In triple-negative breast carcinomas from African American women, KISS1 and KISS1R expression were inversely correlated.

    In plain wordsIn breast tumors from African American women, the body's own KISS1 level was linked to a lower KISS1R level in triple-negative tumors.
