Figure 2

Inhibitory activity of HDPs against lentiviral and adenoviral vectors. Percent luciferase activity of 293A target cells transduced in the presence of the indicated amounts of HDP with the VLΔBH lentiviral vector (A to E) or an adenoviral vector (F to J) both transferring the luciferase gene is shown. Modulation of cell metabolism was investigated in parallel by incubating 293A target cells stably transduced with a luciferase gene with the indicated amounts of HDP. The luciferase activity is expressed as percentage of the luciferase activity of cells cultured in the absence of HDP. The mean and the standard deviation of triplicates are given.
