TGFβ1 enhanced Smad3 recruitment to the TGFBIp and ECM-associated gene promoters. Smad3 recruitment at the indicated gene promoters in wild-type and GCD2 homozygous corneal fibroblasts was stimulated by TGFβ1 (5 ng/ml) for 8 h. Smad3 recruitment was determined by ChIP assays with Smad3 antibody. Results were normalized to the input, and Smad3 occupancy was expressed as the fold enrichment over respective wild-type control samples (mean ± standard error (SE); **P < 0.01 vs. wild type, n = 3)
