Chickpea ( L) is a significant dietary source of flavonoids and the hypoglycemic activity were investigated in this study. Firstly, total twenty nine chickpea flavonoids were identified by UPLC-MS/MS with ononin, cyanidin-3-O-glucoside, astragalin, cynaroside, kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside, biochanin A, and daidzin being the most abundant among them. Our results demonstrated that chickpea flavonoids regulated glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism, and reduced oxidative stress in insulin resistance HepG2 cells. Furthermore, insulin resistance was ameliorated by chickpea flavonoids through the activation of insulin receptor substrate1 (IRS1), phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and phosphorylated protein kinase B (Akt) in HepG2 cells. More importantly, key differential metabolites include L-tryptophan, L-tyrosine, l-glutamine and linoleic acid were reserved by chickpea flavonoids and correlated with glucolipid metabolism and oxidative stress in IR-HepG2 cells. In conclusion, these results indicated that chickpea flavonoids might act as potential natural products regulating insulin resistance in HepG2 cells.

In the present study, a statistical tool called the simplex lattice mixture design method was used to create a new formulation of Natural Deep Eutectic Solvent (NADES), which is derived from a combination of three compounds (citric acid, glycerol, and water) to extract bioactive compounds from chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) sprouts. The mixture (natural deep eutectic solvent) was formulated by combining three solvents including citric acid, glycerol, and water.

This study provides an assessment of nutrients (protein, amino acid profiles, fiber, starch), phenolic content TPC, flavonoid content TFC, and antioxidant capacity through different in vitro methods in 12 legume species (red, green, yellow, brown, and black lentils; mung, pinto, black, and kidney beans; chickpea, soy, and lupin) and hemp. Legumes with a protein content above 30% were black lentil, lupin, and soy. Chickpea, soy, black bean, kidney bean, and mung bean did not have any limiting amino acids.

Seed samples of two types of chickpea (Cicer arietinum Linn.), including variety A (NRCGR-4452) and variety B (local varieties), with different seed colors, were collected every five days for a total of four times during the seed development period. Non-targeted metabolome and transcriptome sequencing were conducted to identify differentially expressed genes and metabolites associated with chickpea seed coat color.
