Abstract
⺠Butein was isolated from Rhus verniciflua Stokes. ⺠Butein possesses cytoprotective effects on hydrogen peroxide-induced dental cell death. ⺠Butein increases heme oxygenase-1 protein expression and HO activity. ⺠Butein showed potent cytoprotective effects via Nrf2/ARE pathway-dependent expression of HO-1. ⺠Butein may be used to prevent functional dental cell death and useful as a pulpal disease agent.
