Abstract
This study evaluates age-related morphological changes in skeletal muscle of white outbred rats after mechanical closed injury. One hundred rats aged 3–12 months were examined using histological and morphometric methods. Younger rats showed faster regeneration and milder damage, while older rats exhibited greater necrosis and delayed repair. Regenerative capacity declined progressively with age.
