Abstract
Ferroptosis, a novel form of regulated cell death, is characterized by imbalance of intracellular iron and redox systems, resulting from overgeneration of toxic lipid peroxidation products. In recent years, the verified crucial role of ferroptosis has been widely concerned in rudimentary pathogenesis and development of various acute and chronic kidney disease (CKD), comprehending the potential patterns of cell death can afford more reliable bases and principles for treatment and prevention of renal disease. In this review, the regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis were introduced and the important roles of ferroptosis in diverse renal diseases such as acute kidney injury, CKD, and renal fibrosis were outlined to illuminate the potential of restraining ferroptosis in treatment and prevention of kidney disease.
