Biological and mechanical factors and epigenetic regulation involved in tendon healing. EGR1: early growth response 1; Scx: scleraxis; TGF-β: transformational growth factor-beta; VEGF: vascular endothelial growth factor; FGF: fibroblast growth factor; PDGF: platelet-derived growth factor; IGF: insulin-like growth factor; miRNA: microRNA; lncRNA: long noncoding RNA.
