3-Deoxyflavonoid compounds and methods for inhibiting T-cell activity and treating diseases and disorders (e.g., autoimmune disorders, inflammatory disorders, diabetes, ALS, MS, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.). In some cases the efficacy and/or duration of action of luteolin and/or other 3-dioxyflavinoid compounds may be increased by administering such compounds along with Rutin, a Rutin congener and/or a Rutin derivative. Also, in some cases, first pass metabolism of luteolin or other 3-deoxyflavinoids may be avoided by administering such compounds by parenteral routes (e.g., sublingual, buccal, intranasal, injection, etc.).

Inhibition by 3-deoxyflavonoids of T-lymphocyte activation and therapies related thereto

The preparation of extracts of seed coats of lentil (Lens esculenta) as a representative member of the Leguminosae, extracted with a range of volatile solvents, such as methanol, acetone, singly or a mixture with water, and food solvents, such as ethyl acetate and ethanol, to yield such extracts that are water-soluble, which contain a rich mixture of condensed tannins (procyanidins and prodciphinidin as glycosides), together with a flavanone (luteolin) and flavonols (quercetin, kaempferol) and phenolic acids (ferulic acid, protocatechuic acid, caffeic acid) and which possess the ability to quench organic free radicals, to scavenge superoxide, to inhibit the oxidation of water soluble nutrients such as vitamin C, as well as the oxidation of fat-soluble nutrients such as essential fatty acids, and to limit damage due to oxidants linked to inflammatory conditions, and to inhibit certain cells responsible for inflammation, is disclosed.
