Core Tip	Excess body iron has been demonstrated as an independent risk factor of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Lately, manipulation of serum hepcidin concentrations through the use of hepcidin agonist is being suggested in the management of iron overload diseases, of which T2D is one. However, little is known about the role of hepcidin in the development of T2D; hence, the need for a review of the existing evidence linking hepcidin and T2D. We discuss some of the main mechanisms through which hepcidin could be associated with T2D.
