This article systematically elaborates on the molecular characteristics and biological functions of Dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK-1), focusing on its core mechanism as an antagonist of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in regulating vascular endothelial inflammatory responses and promoting platelet-endothelial cell interactions. It also analyzes its clinical correlation with the severity and prognosis of coronary heart disease.
