MORPHOLOGİCAL CHANGES İN SKELETAL MUSCLE TİSSUE OF WHİTE OUTBRED RATS AFTER MECHANİCAL CLOSED İNJURY (AGE ANALYSİS)
Abstract
This study analyzes the morphological and cytomorphological changes that occur in the skeletal muscle tissue of white outbred rats of different age groups (3, 6, 9, and 12 months) following a mechanically induced closed injury to the lower limb. The thickness of muscle fibers, cross-sectional area, nuclear density, and the proportion of atrophied fibers were determined. The obtained results revealed age-related differences in the regenerative processes of skeletal muscle tissue.
