Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is a plant extensively cultivated in Middle Eastern and South Asian countries where its seeds have been traditionally used as flavoring agents food folk medicine for variety of ailments, including diabetes. Its active ingredients include proteins, saponins, polyphenols, alkaloids, flavonoids. Extracts were found rich different phytoconstituents, such trigonelline, diosgenin, 4-hydroxyisoleucine, 3-hydroxyisoleucine, fenugreekine, which, 4-hydroxyisoleucine saponins focused bioactive molecules. extracts exhibit antioxidant, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, antihyperlipidemic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory activities. Even though fenugreek known thrombolytic action, antidiabetic hypocholesterolemic effects are often cited most important therapeutic effects. Furthermore, some the principles hypoglycemic activity characterized reported. The present article aims to provide an overview fenugreek.

Core–shell nanostructures are powerful platforms for the development of novel nanoscale drug delivery systems with sustained release profiles. Coaxial electrospinning is facile and convenient creating medicated core–shell elaborate designs which sustained-release behaviors molecules can be intentionally adjusted. With resveratrol (RES) as a model poorly water-soluble cellulose acetate (CA) PVP polymeric carriers, brand-new electrospun nanostructure was fabricated in this study. The guest RES host CA were designed to have reverse gradient distribution within nanostructures. Scanning electron microscope transmission evaluations verified that these nanofibers had linear morphologies, without beads or spindles, an obvious double-chamber structure. X-ray diffraction patterns Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic results indicated involved components highly compatible presented amorphous molecular state. In vitro dissolution tests new structures able prevent initial burst release, extend continuous-release time period, reduce negative tailing-off effect, thus ensuring better profile than traditional blended drug-loaded nanofibers. mechanism underlying influence structure RES/CA on proposed. Based proof-of-concept demonstration, series advanced functional nanomaterials similarly developed based distributions multi-chamber

Diabetes, affecting over 10.5% of the global population, leads to severe health complications and economic burdens, highlighting urgent need for effective therapeutic approaches. Current treatments are often insufficient, prompting exploration novel agents delivery mechanisms. This study addresses this gap by investigating roles L-arginine (identified as a target drug candidate through network pharmacology) in diabetes management, while also evaluating lipid nanocarriers synthesized from fenugreek seed oil improved delivery. Our docking analyses revealed L-arginine's strong interactions with diabetes-target genes (CYP1A2, CYP2C19, NFKB), multiple hydrogen bonds binding energies ranging − 7.2 8.9 kcal/mol. Encapsulated nanoparticles were characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy, showing absorbance peaks at 415 nm simple 521 L-arginine-loaded nanoparticles. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed an average nanoparticle size 100.2 nm, zeta potential analysis indicated neutral surface charge (− 9.37 mV). Antioxidative activity showed 84.44% inhibition IC50 value 40.5 µg/mL The inhibited albumin denaturation 81.10% alpha-amylase 89.30%, surpassing metformin (78.43% 1000 µg/mL). Hemolysis percentage was minimal 10.54%. These findings demonstrate anti-diabetic agent highlight efficacy innovative systems, providing foundation advancing interventions against diabetes.

Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases and its incidence prevalence have been increasing in recent years. Moreover, many comorbidities can be observed addition to diabetes. For this reason, medicinal plants an important complementary treatment option for individuals with diabetes from past present. However, as every disease, correct use important. Failure do so may worsen course cause side/adverse effects lead herb-drug interactions. This review aimed identify antidiabetic comprehensively describe commonly used ones detail. When studies literature were evaluated, it was determined that present, but potential mechanism activity, positive/negative effects, dosages, plant-drug interactions them not fully revealed. Further research needed, incorrect unknowing these disease.

This study investigates the effects of irrigated and non-irrigated conditions on bioactive compound content in fenugreek ( Trigonella foenum-graecum ) across 31 diverse genotypes from various geographical regions. The was conducted at Atatürk University Research Extension Center, Türkiye (N 39°55’59.9”, E 41°14’10.6”, altitude 1789 m) during 2021 2022 growing seasons. levels diosgenin, trigonelline, 4-hydroxyisoleucine analyzed under were found to be significantly influenced by genotype, environment, their interaction (Genotype × Environment), with a highly significant effect observed p < 0.001 level. compounds included diosgenin (0.50-0.93%), trigonelline (5.22-13.65 mg g - ¹), (0.41-1.90%). Notably, such as Sivas/TR, Amasya/TR, Konya/TR Samsun/TR exhibited higher all conditions, while Spain, Malaysia, France, India showed irrigation. Variability observed, some showing stability different environmental conditions. A negative correlation between fenugreek. Furthermore, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) cluster analysis effective revealing genetic diversity, morphological differences, genotype adaptability. findings highlight potential for selecting superior breeding programs focused enhancing yields, especially varying irrigation research emphasizes critical role factors optimizing production health-benefiting
