We found that extracellular calcium increases fibroblast growth factor-2 expression levels via a cAMP/Protein kinase A dependent pathway in cementoblasts. We also found that Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), the potent stimulator of Protein kinase C increases FGF-2 expression in cementoblasts. These indicate the presence of different pathways for FGF-2 enhancement in cementoblasts.
