HSV-1 infection of host cell enhances syndecan-1 and syndecan-2 cell surface expression in HeLa cells. Cells were infected with a constant dose of HSV-1 (KOS) (m.o.i. of 10) for 2, 4 or 6 h. Syndecan-1 and syndecan-2 cell surface expression was then detected by FACS analysis. Enhanced syndecan-1 (a) and syndecan-2 (b) cell surface expression was detected when HeLa cells were infected with HSV-1. Mock-infected FITC stained cells were used as background control. Results are representative of three independent experiments.
