The nucleic acid stain Hoechst 33342 (Ex/Em: 350/461 nm) is frequently utilized as a cell-permeable nuclear counterstain that emits a blue fluorescence upon binding to dsDNA. Hoechst 33342 is commonly employed in various studies related to cell counting, cell cycle analysis, and cell replication. It is particularly useful in identifying condensed nuclei in apoptotic cells, as well as in combination with BrdU staining for cell-cycle studies.
Hoechst dyes are also useful for monitoring cell viability by tracking changes in their emission spectra. As minor groove-binding DNA stains with AT selectivity, the Hoechst dyes are able to bind to all nucleic acids, but they show a greater fluorescence enhancement for AT-rich double-stranded DNA strands compared to GC-rich strands [1]. This property has been exploited to identify Q-bands in chromosomes, which are regions rich in AT base pairs that fluoresce brightly when stained with the quinacrine dye [2].

核酸染色剂Hoechst 33342 (Ex/Em: 350/461 nm) 常被用作细胞可渗透的核染色剂,与双链DNA结合后发出蓝色荧光。Hoechst 33342常被用于与细胞计数、细胞周期分析和细胞复制相关的各种研究中。它特别有用于鉴定凋亡细胞中的紧缩细胞核,并与BrdU染色结合在一起进行细胞周期研究。
Hoechst染料还可通过跟踪其发射光谱的变化来监测细胞活力。作为小沟结合DNA染料,具有AT选择性,Hoechst染料能够结合所有核酸,但与GC富集的双链DNA链相比,它们对富含AT碱基的链显示出更大的荧光增强[1]。这种特性已被利用于鉴定染色体中的Q带,这些区域富含AT碱基对,当用quinacrine染料染色时会发出明亮的荧光[2]。

Analyzing Cell Death by Nuclear Staining with Hoechst 33342
Cold Spring Harb Protoc 2016 Sep 1;2016(9).PMID:27587774DOI:10.1101/pdb.prot087205.
The nuclei of healthy cells are generally spherical, and the DNA is evenly distributed. During apoptosis the DNA becomes condensed, but this process does not occur during necrosis. Nuclear condensation can therefore be used to distinguish apoptotic cells from healthy cells or necrotic cells. Dyes that bind to DNA, such as Hoechst 33342 or 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), can be used to observe nuclear condensation. These dyes fluoresce at 461 nm when excited by ultraviolet light and can therefore be visualized using conventional fluorescent microscopes equipped with light sources that emit light at ∼350 nm and filter sets that permit the transmission of light at ∼460 nm. This protocol describes staining and visualization of cells stained with Hoechst 33342, but it can be adapted for staining with DAPI or other dyes.
Phototoxicity of Hoechst 33342 in time-lapse fluorescence microscopy
Photochem Photobiol Sci 2010 Dec;9(12):1634-9.PMID:20931137DOI:10.1039/c0pp00234h.
Dyes that bind to DNA, such as Hoechst 33342, are commonly used to visualize chromatin in live cells by fluorescence microscopy. A caveat is that the probes themselves should not perturb cellular responses and under normal conditions the dyes are generally non-toxic. However, researchers are increasingly using computerized time-lapse microscopy (CTLM), where cells stained with fluorescent dyes are often imaged frequently over a period of several days, to follow cellular responses in real time. Little is currently known about possible toxicity of fluorescent DNA dyes under CTLM conditions. In this study we demonstrate that the common live-cell DNA stain Hoechst 33342 can cause apoptosis under CTLM conditions. Although toxicity is evident at long times in the absence of imaging at high dye concentrations, phototoxicity from repeated excitation of the dye in the imaging process is dominant. We show that phototoxicity is a function of the product of light fluence and dye concentration, irrespective of irradiance, frequency and total number of scans. Thus, phototoxicity can be prevented by a combination of dye concentration and imaging procedure that is below this threshold. These quantitative data can be used as a guide to others performing time-lapse microscopy studies with this common live-cell DNA stain and serves as a caution for researchers when using other fluorescent stains under CTLM conditions.
Flow Cytometric Detection of G0 in Live Cells by Hoechst 33342 and Pyronin Y Staining
Methods Mol Biol 2018;1686:49-57.PMID:29030811DOI:10.1007/978-1-4939-7371-2_3.
Hoechst 33342 and Pyronin Y double staining can be used to measure DNA and RNA content in live cells by flow cytometry. Quiescent cells at G0 phase have the same amount of DNA as cells at G1 phase but lower RNA levels compared to proliferating cells. Therefore, resting cells in G0 phase can be distinguished from proliferating cells in G1, S, and G2 M phases. This chapter describes a protocol for double staining of live cells with Hoechst 33342 and Pyronin Y. Combined with immunophenotyping of intact and live cells Hoechst 33342 and Pyronin Y staining is a powerful noninvasive method for the analysis and isolation of quiescent cells from any defined cell population.
Hoechst 33342 as a marker for imaging neurites of Dorsal Root Ganglion in vitro
J Anat 2022 May;240(5):998-1001.PMID:PMC9005665DOI:10.1111/joa.13599.
Fluorescent markers, generally targeting neurotubules, are used to visualize the radiating crown of growing neurites that is produced by dorsal root ganglion cells in vitro. Hoechst 33342 (2'-[4-ethoxyphenyl]-5-[4-methyl-1-piperazinyl]-2,5'-bi-1H-benzimidazole trihydrochloride trihydrate) is a widely used fluorescent DNA marker that stain both live and fixed nuclei. We have recently found that H33342 can visualize the neurites of DRG too, but only when they are fixed in formalin. Images have a good signal-to-noise ratio. We noticed that besides H33342 being a specific marker for DNA, it also stains the transmembrane P-glycoprotein (P-gp) which is involved in the active pump-out of alien molecules from the cytoplasm; so, H33342 remains associated with P-gp after fixation. P-gp is quite ubiquitous in healthy cells and, notably, P-gp has been detected in DRG of several species as well as in human DRG. The use of H33342 as a staining for neurites of DRG in fixed samples could have a practical value due to its widespread use and its better affordability compared to other fluorescent markers for neurites.
Hoechst 33342 Is a Hidden "Janus" amongst Substrates for the Multidrug Efflux Pump LmrP
PLoS One 2015 Nov 5;10(11):e0141991.PMID:26540112DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0141991.
Multidrug transporters mediate the active extrusion of antibiotics and toxic ions from the cell. This reaction is thought to be based on a switch of the transporter between two conformational states, one in which the interior substrate binding cavity is available for substrate binding at the inside of the cell, and another in which the cavity is exposed to the outside of the cell to enable substrate release. Consistent with this model, cysteine cross-linking studies with the Major Facilitator Superfamily drug/proton antiporter LmrP from Lactococcus lactis demonstrated binding of transported benzalkonium to LmrP in its inward-facing state. The fluorescent dye Hoechst 33342 is a substrate for many multidrug transporters and is extruded by efflux pumps in microbial and mammalian cells. Surprisingly, and in contrast to other multidrug transporters, LmrP was found to actively accumulate, rather than extrude, Hoechst 33342 in lactococcal cells. Consistent with this observation, LmrP expression was associated with cellular sensitivity, rather than resistance to Hoechst 33342. Thus, we discovered a hidden "Janus" amongst LmrP substrates that is translocated in reverse direction across the membrane by binding to outward-facing LmrP followed by release from inward-facing LmrP. These findings are in agreement with distance measurements by electron paramagnetic resonance in which Hoechst 33342 binding was found to stabilize LmrP in its outward-facing conformation. Our data have important implications for the use of multidrug exporters in selective targeting of "Hoechst 33342-like" drugs to cells and tissues in which these transporters are expressed.
