Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is used as a spice throughout the world. It is known for its medicinal properties such as\nantidiabetic, anticarcinogenic, and immunological activities. The present study shows the properties and the nutritional quality\nof fenugreek seed extract and focuses on screening of active compounds in drug designing for type 2 diabetes and breast cancer.\nQuantitative analysis was used to calculate the percentages of protein, carbohydrates moisture, fatty acid, galactomannan, oil, and\namino acid. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of flavonoids, terpenoids, phenols, proteins, saponins, and tannins in\nfenugreek seed extracts. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation-based computational drug discovery methods\nwere employed to address the role of fenugreek seed constituents against type 2 diabetes and breast cancer. The computational\nresults reveal that the compound galactomannan can be ascribed as potential drug candidate against breast cancer and type 2\ndiabetes rendered by higher molecular dock scores, stable molecular dynamics (MD) simulations results, and lower binding energy\ncalculations.
