On the basis of the evidence that approximately 45% of Schaffer collateral boutons are zinc-positive, zinc release from Schaffer collaterals and its action were examined in hippocampal slices. When zinc release front Schaffer collaterals was examined using ZnAF-2, a membrane-impermeable zinc indicator, ZnAF-2 signal in the stratum radiatum of the CA1 was increased by tetanic stimuli at 100 Hz for 1 s, suggesting that zinc-is released from Schaffer collaterals in a calcium- and impulse-dependent manner. An in vivo microdialysis experiment indicated that the perfusion with 10 mu M zinc significantly decreases extracellular glutamate concentration in the CA1. When tetanic stimuli at 100Hz for 5 s were delivered to the dentate granule cells, the increase in calcium signal in the stratum radiaturn of the CA1, as well as in the stratum lucidum of the CA3, was attenuated by addition of 10 mu M zinc, while enhanced by addition of 1 mM CaEDTA, a membrane-impermeable zinc chelator. The increase in calcium signal in the CA1, in which Schaffer collateral synapses exist, during delivery of tetanic stimuli at 100 Hz for 1 s to the Schaffer collateral-commissural pathway was also significantly enhanced by addition of 1 mM CaEDTA. These results suggest that zinc released from Schaffer collaterals suppressively modulates presynaptic and postsynaptic calcium signaling in the CA1, followed by the suppression of glutamate release.
