Abstract：
:The use of zinc as a nutritional supplement has become common in many countries. Since zinc has diverse actions, it may be difficult to predict its synergistic and/or antagonistic action in simultaneous presence of drug(s). The combination of imidazole antifungals, but not triazole antifungals, with 3-30 microM ZnCl2 significantly increased the lethality of rat thymocytes. Since intracellular Zn2+ exerts various actions on the process of cell death, there is a possibility that imidazole antifungals, but not triazole antifungals, increases concentration of intracellular Zn2+ ([Zn2+]i). To test the possibility, we examined the effects of imidazole and triazole antifungals on [Zn2+]i of rat thymocytes in absence and presence of extracellular Zn2+ by the use of FluoZin-3, a fluorescent Zn2+ indicator. Imidazole antifungals (clotrimazole, econazole, and oxiconazole) increased the [Zn2+]i in the presence of extracellular Zn2+ while it was not the case for triazole antifungals (itraconazole and fluoconazole). Thus, it is suggested that imidazole antifungals increase the membrane permeability of Zn2+. The potency order in the augmentation of FluoZin-3 fluorescence by imidazole antifungals in the presence of extracellular Zn2+ was the same as that in their cytotoxic action. Therefore, the cytotoxic action of imidazole antifungals may be related to their action on membrane Zn2+ permeability.
