Genetic removal of synaptic Zn2+ impairs cognition, alters neurotrophic signaling and induces neuronal hyperactivity

Vesicular Zn2+ (zinc) is released at synapses and has been demonstrated to modulate neuronal responses. However, mechanisms through which dysregulation of zinc homeostasis may potentiate neuronal dysfunction and neurodegeneration are not well-understood. We previously reported that accumulation of s...
