There has been an alarming trend toward earlier puberty in girls, suggesting the influence of an environmental factor(s). As the reactivation of the reproductive axis during puberty is thought to be mediated by the hypothalamic neuropeptides kisspeptin and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), we asked whether an environmental compound might activate the kisspeptin (KISS1R) or GnRH receptor (GnRHR).
