Association of genetic polymorphisms in the Matrix Gla Protein (MGP) gene with coronary artery disease and serum mgp levels
Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is an important regulatory protein for inhibition of calcification in the vessel wall and cartilage. The MGP gene polymorphisms are suspected to increase the risk of extracellular calcification through altering the related gene expression and serum MGP levels. The goal of th...
