Cell fusion of HLA-C silenced HeLa-Env cells with HeLa-P4.2 target cells. Analysis of syncytia formation by co-cultivating HLA-C silenced (+) and non-silenced (-) HeLa-LAI and HeLa-NDK cells with target HeLa-P4.2 cells, expressing CD4 and CXCR4. The number of syncytia formed is lower (p < 0.01) using HLA-C silenced HeLa-LAI cells. Fusion efficiency of HeLa-NDK cells is not significantly affected by HLA-C silencing.
