Fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a pathological condition that is highly heterogeneous and lethal, and has few effective treatment choices. Other than pirfenidone and nintedanib for the therapy of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, no medications are currently licensed for the treatment of ILD. Luteolin is a common flavonoid with multiple biological effects such as anti-inflammation but with poor solubility and absorption. In this study, we loaded luteolin into γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (CD-MOFs) to deliver the medicine to the lungs using dry powder inhalers; in vitro pulmonary deposition results showed LUT@CDMOF had a high fine particle fraction (FPF) (59.77 ± 3.48%). LUT@CDMOF effectively inhibited ILD progression in the BLM-induced fibrosing ILD model rats. When compared to oral administration, the inhalation of LUT@CDMOF dry powder in rats showed considerable improvements in absorption and bioavailability, with a t of 0.08 h and a high absolute bioavailability (82%) of LUT (The AUC and C of inhal. LUT@CDMOF respectively increased about 4.03 times and 9.11 times, when compared with the i.g. LUT group). These studies demonstrate the potent anti-inflammatory activities of LUT@CDMOF. The inhaled LUT@CDMOF might be considered as a promising new strategy in the treatment of fibrosing ILD.
