Histochemical Investigations of Elastin, Collastin, and Other Collagens

摘要: Conventional staining technics for connective tissues, e.g., elastica stains, Van Gieson’s picro-fuchsin, and trichrome methods, were introduced between 1880 1910, but their chemical mechanism significance remained obscure. Interpretations of patterns based on tradition rather than data. Histochemical studies during the 1960s demonstrated that e. g., resorcin-fuchsin, not specific (Puchtler et al. 1961) there striking differences collagens Sweat 1963, 1964a; Joiner 1965; Smith 1966); at time all human collagen was still supposed to have formula (a.1)2a.2. In addition, perusal nineteenth century literature indicated much early knowledge tissue arteriosclerosis has been forgotten. Many these data rediscovered past twenty years.
