Cryopreserved tissue allografts used for cardiovascular diseases become calcified as a late complication after transplantation, probably caused by immunological rejection. Recent attention has been focused on the inhibitory effect of matrix Gla protein (MGP) on ectopic vascular calcification, but the behavior of MGP in cryopreserved allografts is uncertain. In this study we examined the relationship between immunological rejection and MGP in cryopreserved rat aortic grafts after transplantation.
