Polymorphisms in MGP gene and their association with lead toxicity.

Toxicology mechanisms and methods - 1 Mar 2009

Shaik Abjal Pasha, Jamil Kaiser

Abstract excerpt

Matrix gamma-carboxy glutamic acid protein (MGP) is a 10-kDa secreted protein containing five residues of the vitamin K-dependent calcium binding amino acid gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla). This study was carried out to examine the effects of MGP gene promoter polymorphism (T-138C) on blood lead levels (BLL) and hematological parameters in 113 battery manufacturing unit workers occupationally exposed to lead and...
