Menaquinone 7 (MK-7) is a vitamin K2 analog that has been found in a variety of fermented foods.{41834} It increases osteocalcin, osteoprotegerin, and RANKL mRNA expression in osteoblastic MC3T3E cells. MK-7 (1 µM) increases alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium content in femoral-metaphyseal tissues isolated from normal and skeletal-unloaded rats.{41835} In vivo, MK-7 (100 µg/g diet) inhibits aortic and myocardial calcification and decreases aortic alkaline phosphatase tissue concentrations in a rat model of extraosseous calcification.{41836} It also increases trabecular number, bone mineral density, and bone mineral content in a rat model of ovariectomy-induced bone loss.{41837}
