METHOD FOR INDUCING DIFFERENTIATION OF HUMAN PLURIPOTENT STEM CELL INTO INTERMEDIATE MESODERM CELL

摘要

The present invention relates to: a method for producing an intermediate mesoderm cell from a human pluripotent stem cell, comprising a step of culturing the human pluripotent stem cell in a medium containing Activin A and Wnt or a functional equivalent of Wnt and a step of culturing cells in a medium containing BMP and Wnt or a functional equivalent of Wnt; to a method for producing a metanephric cell from the intermediate mesoderm cell produced by the first method; to a human pluripotent stem cell having a foreign reporter gene in the chromosome wherein the gene is expressed interlocked with the expression of endogenous OSR1; to a method for screening for an inducer for differentiation into intermediate mesoderm using the human pluripotent stem cell; and to a kit for inducing the differentiation into an intermediate mesoderm cell.
