    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
        Panel mainPanel = new Panel(); 
        mainPanel.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(e.Row.Cells[4].Text)); 
            e.Row.Cells[4].Controls.Add(mainPanel);
    }
}

Modify the Text property of the cell and then it should work. Currently it is just pasting as text.
