1 Elastin calcification and its prevention with aluminum chloride pretreatment. Aluminum Chloride elastin Rattus norvegicus
2 We investigated the time course of calcification, the effect of glutaraldehyde crosslinking on calcification, and mechanisms of inhibition of elastin calcification by pretreatment with aluminum chloride (AlCl(3)). Aluminum Chloride elastin Rattus norvegicus

4 Our results further demonstrated that AlCl(3) pretreatment of elastin led to complete inhibition of elastin calcification using 21-day rat subdermal implants, irrespective of glutaraldehyde crosslinking (Ca(2+) = 0.73-2.15 microgram/mg for AlCl(3) pretreated elastin versus 89.73 +/- 9.84 for untreated elastin).

8 Our results further demonstrated that AlCl(3) pretreatment of elastin led to complete inhibition of elastin calcification using 21-day rat subdermal implants, irrespective of glutaraldehyde crosslinking (Ca(2+) = 0.73-2.15 microgram/mg for AlCl(3) pretreated elastin versus 89.73 +/- 9.84 for untreated elastin). Aluminum Chloride elastin Rattus norvegicus
9 The AlCl(3) pretreatment caused irreversible binding of aluminum ions to elastin, as assessed by atomic emission spectroscopy. Aluminum Chloride elastin Rattus norvegicus
10 Thus, it is concluded that purified elastin calcifies in rat subdermal implants, and that the AlCl(3)-pretreated elastin completely resists calcification due to irreversible aluminum ion binding and subsequent structural alterations caused by AlCl(3). Aluminum Chloride elastin Rattus norvegicus
