Core Tip	Obesity is unquestionably one of the biggest health challenges the modern world will face this century. It has vast effects on systemic function including cardiovascular disease, metabolic dysfunction and chronic inflammation. All of these factors have a great impact on kidney function, and current data indicate a significant correlation between obesity and kidney disease because of irregular immune activation, altered renal hemodynamics and metabolic mediator signaling. This review focuses on the most recent findings that have begun to elucidate the relationship between obesity and its effect on the kidneys.
