Open injuries are one of the most common skeletal muscle traumas. The study aimed to estimate the effect of the oral administration of C60 fullerene aqueous solution (C60FAS) daily at a dose of 1 mg/kg on the restoration of rat skeletal muscle functional activity on the 5th, 10th and 15th day after the open trauma. Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups of 12 animals in each: control, with muscle injury and with muscle injury+C60FAS. The isolated gastrocnemius muscle was subjected to open injury by transverse dissection with a depth of 1 mm. Stimulation of muscle efferents was carried out by electrical impulses gene­rated using a strain gauge generator. The content of C-reactive protein, creatinine, lactate, reduced glutathione and the activity of catalase and superoxide dismutase in the rat blood were determined. According to the data obtained, application of C60FAS promotes the restoration of the functional activity of injured muscle, which was confirmed by a significant increase in gastrocnemius muscle force impulse, attenuation of the inflammatory and development of fatigue and normalization of pro- and antioxidant balance in the process of regeneration.
