PTEN can reverse the promoting effect of down-regulation of FOXD2-AS1 on Achilles tendon healing. A RNA expression quantification and immunoblot of PTEN; B HE staining of Achilles tendon; C–D Immunohistochemical positive staining of COL1A1 and TNMD; E–G UTS, stiffness, and Young’s modulus; H–I ELISA analysis of IL-1β and TNF-α in rat Achilles tendon; values were expressed as mean ± standard deviation. *P < 0.05 versus si-FOXD2-AS1 + oe-NC
