Abstract:
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent programmed cell death. Iron overload and lipid reactive oxygen accumulation play a core role in the occurrence and development of ferroptosis. Any factors affecting the balance of iron metabolism and redox system may induce and aggravate ferroptosis. Ferroptosis is involved in the pathological process of acute kidney injury, diabetic nephropathy, renal interstitial fibrosis and some other kidney diseases, and inhibiting ferroptosis has potential renoprotective benefits. This article reviewed the pathophysiological mechanism of ferroptosis and its research progress in renal diseases, and discussed the application prospect of targeted ferroptosis in the treatment of renal diseases.
