Deciphering Gentamicin-Induced Nephrotoxicity and Hepatotoxicity: Pathophysiological Insights and Emerging Protective Approaches.
Gentamicin (GEN) is a critical aminoglycoside antibiotic for severe gram-negative infections, yet its clinical utility is limited by dose-dependent nephrotoxicity (occurring in 10-25% of therapeutic courses) and hepatotoxicity. Nephrotoxicity arises from GEN accumulation in proximal tubular cells, triggering reactive o...
