Mechanically facilitated cell-cell electrofusion

Cell Electrofusion Visualized with Fluorescence Microscopy

Cell electrofusion is a safe, non-viral and non-chemical method that can be used for preparing hybrid cells for human therapy. Electrofusion involves application of short high-voltage electric pulses to cells that are in close contact. Application of short, high-voltage electric pulses causes destabilization of cell plasma membranes. Destabilized membranes are more permeable for different molec...

Cell electrofusion using nanosecond electric pulses

Electrofusion is an efficient method for fusing cells using short-duration high-voltage electric pulses. However, electrofusion yields are very low when fusion partner cells differ considerably in their size, since the extent of electroporation (consequently membrane fusogenic state) with conventionally used microsecond pulses depends proportionally on the cell radius. We here propose a new and...

Droplet Microfluidic Platform for Cell Electrofusion

Hybridization frequencies of different mammalian cell types by electrofusion.

The efficiency of electrofusion of four types of cells: CHO, HeLa, mouse melanoma cells and human skin fibroblasts has been studied. The frequencies of fusion products were determined 1) directly in a closed flow-through fusion chamber after dielectrophoresis and pulsation; 2) after short-term postfusion cultivation period of 5 to 10 minutes; and 3) in various intervals up to 30 hours after fus...
