Abstract

Saturated free fatty acids (SAFFAs) trigger their deleterious effects through inducing the intracellular inflammatory pathway related to insulin resistance. This results in a constellation of biomedical disorders known as metabolic syndrome. Gentamicin is a widely used aminoglycoside antibiotic. Its nephrotoxic action is characterized by both proximal convoluted tubules and glomerular membrane damage. The mechanism of nephrotoxicity is closely related to oxidative stress and free radicals generation.
