    • Abstract:
      A recent study conducted by researchers at Charles University of Prague focused on the biomarker Matrix Gla protein (MGP) and its role in preventing soft-tissue calcification. MGP is a vitamin K-dependent protein that inhibits calcification and requires vitamin K2 for proper function. The study aimed to develop methods for monitoring MGP levels and apply them to clinical analysis. The researchers concluded that MGP and dp-uc MGP could potentially serve as markers for joint diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and vitamin K status. [Extracted from the article]
