In recent publications (Bailey et al 1969; Bailey & Shimokomaki, 1971) we have reported studies of the age-related changes in the reducible cross-links of several types of collagens. It was shown that with all the tissues studied there was a decrease with age in the amounts of all these intermolecular cross-links, presumably by conversion of the aldimine bond to a more stable non-reducible form. Since these changes inversely paralleled the rate of growth, the process was considered an essential step in the maturation of collagen. In addition, it was found that two of the reducible components, designated Fraction A, increased with age. This phenomenon was apparent not only in the different tissues examined, but also in different species of animal and in man. Thus, an increase in Fr. A appears to be a general characteristic of ageing and it was for this reason that further studies of the nature of these components have been carried out. This paper briefly describes their isolation and identification from mature bovine skin.
