Abstract
Skeletal muscle is the largest component in the humane bodies, the main function of skeletal muscle is drive locomotion. Muscle fibers composed of myofibrils, the myofibrils are composed of actin and myosin filaments interact to from actinomyosin cross bridge, fibronectin is a high-molecular weight glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix that binds to membrane-spanning receptor proteins called integrins .Similar to integrins, fibronectin binds extracellular matrix components such as collagen, fibrin, and heparin sulfate proteoglycans. The present study enrolled 40 mature male rabbits. The Extensor digitorum longus muscle was set as amodel for skeletal injury, extensor digitorum longus muscle taken after 3&6 weeks post operatively. Muscle tissues were histologically prepared for paraffin section a proceeded with immunohistochemical reaction fibronectin Ab. The Aperio software for quantitative immunohistochemical reaction was used. Fibronectin antibody was used in this study to asses it is role and changes during the process of regeneration there was a significant difference between the 3rd week's groups and other 2 groups (6th weeks and control groups).
This study occluded that there is an important role for fibronectin in skeletal muscle regeneration
