Effect of transplantation on entire anterior tibialis muscle (ATM) has been studied in rabbits. It was observed that there was an initial phase of degeneration of almost all the original muscle fibres followed by a regeneration of new myotubes within 10 days of transplantation. The process of regeneration was slow in this muscle. All the morphometric parameters studied were decreased till the end of experiment. The DNA and RNA contents showed increase while protein contents decreased during whole period.
