A Matrix Gla Protein Gene Polymorphism is Associated with Increased Coronary Artery Calcification Progression

OBJECTIVE: Matrix gla protein (MGP) inhibits arterial and cartilaginous calcification. A Threonine to Alanine (Thr83Ala) polymorphism (codon 83) in MGP is associated with myocardial infarction (MI) and femoral artery calcification. We examined the association of the MGP Thr83Ala polymorphism with qu...
