Vitamin K–Dependent Carboxylation of Matrix Gla Protein Influences the Risk of Calciphylaxis

Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is a potent inhibitor of vascular calcification. The ability of MGP to inhibit calcification requires the activity of a vitamin K–dependent enzyme, which mediates MGP carboxylation. We investigated how MGP carboxylation influences the risk of calciphylaxis in adult patients...
