Abstract:
Matrix Gla protein [MGP] is an extracellular matrix protein that inhibits the calcification of arteries and cartilage. Nevertheless, MGP is synthesized in many tissues, and it is particularly abundant in embryonic tissues. Matricellular proteins are secreted into the extracellular environment. They are not fundamental structural proteins; instead, they modulate the functions of cells by interacting with cell-surface receptors, proteases, hormones, and other effector molecules as well as with structural matrix proteins such as collagens. MGP is one such protein that inhibits calcification in the body. This review focuses on the role of MGP development and maintenance of dental and periodontal tissues.
