Fig. 1 Graph illustrating elastin (□), collagen (▨), and smooth-muscle cell (■) concentration in freshly fixed aorta, aorta cultured for 14 days without any elastase, and in aortas cultured for 14 days that were preincubated with pancreatic elastase at concentration of 1, 10, and 100 U/ml for 24 hours. Values are medians with interquartile ranges.

Fig. 3 Graph illustrating relative change in concentration of elastin, collagen, and smooth-muscle cells between two groups of aortic organ cultures, one preincubated with pancreatic elastase (100 U/ml) for 24 hours (elastase—solid squares—) and one cultured in standard conditions (control—open circles—). Values are medians with interquartile ranges.
