We published a report of spectral shift in apoptotic thymocytes in:
Ormerod MG, Sun X-M, Snowden RT, Davies R, Fearnhead HO & Cohen GM.
Increased membrane permeability of apoptotic thymocytes: a fow cytometric
study. Cytometry, 141, 595-602, 1993.
I suspect that the shift is due to increased binding of Hoechst 33342 to
the DNA because of the more rapid uptake of dye by the apoptotic cells.
I doubt if a differential effect between normal and apoptotic will be
observed in all cells.
