We have previously shown that crystals of calcium oxalate (COM) elicit a superoxide (O-2(.-)) response from mitochondria. We have now investigated: (i) if other microparticles can elicit the same response, (ii) if processing of crystals is involved, and (iii) at what level of mitochondrial function oxalate acts. O-2(.-) measured in digitonin-permeabilized MDCK cells by lucigenin (10 mu M) chemiluminescence. [C-14]-COM dissociation was examined with or without EDTA and employing alternative chelators. Whereas mitochondrial O-2(.-) in COM-treated cells was three- to fourfold enhanced compared to controls, other particulates (uric acid, zymosan, and latex beads) either did not increase O-2(.-) or were much less effective (hydroxyapatite +50%, p < 0.01), with all at 28 mu g/cm(2). Free oxalate (750 mu M), at the level released from COM with EDTA (1 mM), increased O-2(.-) (+50%, p < 0.01). Omitting EDTA abrogated this signal, which was restored completely by EGTA and partially by ascorbate, but not by desferrioxamine or citrate. Omission of phosphate abrogated O-2(.-), implicating phosphate-dependent mitochondrial dicarboxylate transport. COM caused a time-related increase in the mitochondrial membrane potential (Delta psi(m)) measured using TMRM fluorescence and confocal microscopy. Application of COM to Fura 2-loaded cells induced rapid, large-amplitude cytosolic Ca2+ transients, which were inhibited by thapsigargin, indicating that COM induces release of Ca2+ from internal stores. Thus, COM-induced mitochondrial O-2(.-) requires the release of free oxalate and contributes to a synergistic response. Intracellular dissociation of COM and the mitochondrial dicarboxylate transporter are important in O-2(.-) production, which is probably regulated by Delta psi(m). (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc.
