2 Fig. 1 a, Carboxymethyl-cellulose chromatography of a CB digestion of abdominal aortic aneurysm. The peak labeled CB8 was pooled for separation by agarose A-1.5 m chromatography. b, Agarose A-1.5 m molecular sieve chromatography of the CB peptides eluting in the CB8 region from carboxymethyl-cellulose. The collagen peptides α1(I)-CB(8-3), α1(I)-CB8, and α1(III)-CB8 eluted from the column at positions corresponding to molecular weight of 37,000, 24,000, and 12,000, respectively. Peak areas were used to calculate the ratios of type I and type III collagens.

3 Fig. 2 Collagen and elastin concentration of infrarenal aorta from nonaneurysmal age-matched control subjects and abdominal aortic aneurysms, expressed as percentage delipidized, decalcified dry weight. Collagen weight was derived from hydroxyproline analysis.

4 Fig. 3 A, Hematoxylin-eosin stain of infrarenal aorta from a nonaneurysmal age-matched control subject.B, A routine abdominal aortic aneurysm oriented with the intima superiorly and the adventitia inferiorly. Note the infiltration of inflammatory cells particularly within the adventitia of the aneurysm. (Original magnification × 16.)

5 Fig. 4 A, Elastin van Gieson stain of infrarenal aorta from nonaneurysmal age-matched control subject.B, Abdominal aortic aneurysm oriented with the intima superiorly and the adventitia inferiorly. Note the deficiency and fragmentation of elastin (black) in the aneurysm. (Original magnification × 16.)
