Levels of apoptosis induction (4',6'-diamidino-2-phenylindole staining, activation of caspase 3) for aminoglycosides were compared by using renal LLC-PK1 cells. Amikacin caused less apoptosis than gentamicin in incubated cells. In electroporated cells, neomycin B and gentamicin caused apoptosis in the 0.03 to 0.1 mM range, isepamicin required larger concentrations (0.2 mM), and amikacin was without effect.
