Localization and staining features of the oxidant-sensitive fluorescent probe 2'7'-dichlorofluorescin (DCFH) were evaluated in isolated cardiac muscle cells. Cardiomyocytes rapidly accumulated the probe and retained steady levels of DCFH and its highly fluorescent oxidized product dichlorofluorescein (DCF) in probe-free medium for 1.5 h. DCF was associated with mitochondria and was released by the proton ionophore carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone but not by saponin, which permeabilizes the plasma membrane. A mitochondrial distribution of DCF was also suggested by experiments with the mitochondrial marker MitoTracker Red, in which quenching was observed between DCF and MitoTracker Red in live cells. Isolated cardiac mitochondria rapidly accumulated DCF, and high micromolar concentrations of the probe inhibited ADP-stimulated respiration rate. The study provides an information base essential for the interpretation and design of experiments with DCF as a marker of oxidative stress in cardiac muscle and reveals preferential localization of the probe in mitochondria.
