Abstract

Muscle injuries are highly prevalent in football. The majority of these injuries occur in the lower extremities, accounting for 68-88% of injuries. The cell membrane allows complex communication and exchange between the cell's interior and its extracellular environment. Throughout life, cells may be injured by various factors, including mechanical stress. If the membrane injury is not repaired in a timely manner, the injury progresses to cell death and permanent tissue damage. The MG53 protein initiates the formation of the repair patch by facilitating the movement of intracellular vesicles to the site of membrane injury. MG53 is found in striated muscle. Studies indicate the presence of low levels of MG53 in lung cells, the inner cortex of the kidney, in addition to torn muscle tissue cells. The research aims to digitally track MG53 protein levels as one of the criteria for recovery from muscle tears in football players. The experimental method was used on a sample of 6 players from the Libyan Al-Swahili Club during the 2023-2024 football season. The most important results were: - The MG53 protein activity index increases in the third week of muscle tear injury for the muscles working on the hip joint by 45.48% of the normal rate.
