The present invention provides a method for screening for a substance that promotes the induction of induced pluripotent stem cells from cells derived from a body having contracted a disease with which it is not possible to manufacture induced pluripotent stem cells by only the introduction of an initialization gene. The present invention enables the provision of a method for screening for a substance, the method including cultivating, in the presence of a test substance, cells into which an initialization gene has been introduced, the cells being derived from a body having contracted a disease with which it is not possible to manufacture induced pluripotent stem cells by only the introduction of an initialization gene, and segregating out the test substance, which promotes the induction of the cells to induced pluripotent stem cells. |
