Elastic fibers during aging and disease
Elastic fibers are essential constituents of the extracellular matrix of higher vertebrates and endow several tissues and organs including lungs, skin and blood vessels with elasticity and resilience. During the human lifespan, elastic fibers are exposed

Transmission and scanning electron microscopy of cutis rhomboidalis
Cutis rhomboidalis nuchae was assessed in a 65-year-old patient. Optical microscopy showed basophilic agglomerations in the reticular dermis with decreased elastic fibers.

Structure of the Elastic Fiber: An Overview.
Intense research efforts over the past 18 yr have probed deeply into the structure of the elastic fiber. This began with the elucidation of the demosine crosslinks in elastin and the description of the elastin precursor, tropoelastin, derived from copper-deficient animals.

Molecular Pathology of the Elastic Fibers.
Elastic fibers form a network that contributes to the elasticity and resilience of tissues such as the skin. Histopathologic and ultrastructural abnormalities in the elastic fibers have been observed in several diseases of the skin and other tissues. Recent cloning of several genes involved in elastic fiber architecture has lead to the approach of the ...

THE FINE STRUCTURE OF ELASTIC FIBERS [PDF]
The fine structure of developing elastic fibers in bovine ligamentum nuchae and rat flexor digital tendon was examined. Elastic fibers were found to contain two distinct morphologic components in sections stained with uranyl acetate and lead. These components are 100 A fibrils and a central, almost amorphous nonstaining area.

Ultraviolet radiation reduces desmosine cross-links in elastin
Elastic fibers, a major component of the extracellular matrix of the skin, are often exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation throughout mammalian life. We report on an in vitro study of the alterations in bovine nuchal ligament elastic fibers resulting ...

Regulation of thermal relaxation behavior and aggregation structure of polyacrylonitrile fiber
Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers which formed high-elastic deformation during the spinning process,have thermal relaxation behavior in the heat conditions, such as thermal shrinkage with disorientation.
