The aortic tunica intima is largely composed of pink-stained collagen fibers. Elastin appears here as black, squiggly lines. The tunica media contains large amounts of elastin, collagen, and smooth muscle. The components of the tunica media are organized in sheet-like laminae, with holes or fenestrations in the elastic laminae. UCLA Histology Collection
