Abstract
Aminoglycosides were compared for apoptosis induction (DAPI staining, activation of caspase 3) in renal LLC-PK1 cells. Amikacin caused less apoptosis than gentamicin in incubated cells. In electroporated cells, neomycin B and gentamicin caused apoptosis in the 0.06-0.1 mM range, isepamicin required larger concentrations (0.2 mM), and amikacin was without effect.
