Diabetic Nephropathy (DN), the most common complication in diabetes mellitus, has been affecting the lives of people diabetic for a long time. Numerous studies have demonstrated the unbreakable connection between ferroptosis and kidney cell damage. Ferroptosis is a type of iron-dependent, non-apoptotic, regulated cell death, characterized by the buildup of intracellular lipid peroxides to lethal levels. Although the role of programmed cell deaths like apoptosis, autophagy, and necroptosis in the pathogenesis of DN has been demonstrated, the implication of ferroptosis in DN was least interrogated. Hence, the main aim of this review was to discuss the current understanding of ferroptosis focusing on its potential mechanisms, its involvement in DN, and emerging therapeutic opportunities.
