What is osteocalcin and how is it connected to vitamin K?
It is believed that human skeleton is renewed every 7 years. This process depends on many biochemical factors and two types of specialized cells – osteoblasts (which are responsible for the bone-forming) and osteoclasts (which are responsible for bone resorption).
The osteoblasts synthesize a type of protein in the bones – osteocalcin – which is responsible for the binding of calcium to the bone matrix and by doing so it strengthens the bone system.
