From human neuroblastoma-derived SILA
cells we have established a -0 cell line that is deficient in both
respiration and mitochondrial DNA. Lactate dehydrogenase activity,
lactate production, and growth in the medium without glucose indicate
that these cells shift from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism. Electron
microscopic observations revealed abnormal mitochondria with unique
cristae structures. Staining with MitoTracker dye showed that the
mitochondrial transmembrane potential was reduced by 30-40% from the
parent cell levels. These cells were markedly susceptible to
H2O2 and died apparently by a necrotic
mechanism, a process blocked by deferoxamine in the parent cells but
not -0 cells. Analysis by inductively coupled plasma-mass
spectrometry revealed an approximately 3-fold accumulation of iron in
the -0 cells at confluence (n = 4-6, three clones,
*p < 0.05). Iron and four other metals were all
elevated in the cells of one of the -0 clones and were similar to
control levels in the control cybrid cells, which were replenished with
normal mitochondrial DNA. Their sensitivity to
H2O2 was also similar to that of the parent
cells. These results indicate that a newly established neuronal related
-0 cell line is highly susceptible to active oxygen species and that
these toxicity effects appear to be related to an accumulation of
transition metals, which probably occurs through the respiratory impairment.
