It is intended to provide a method for noninvasively isolating human renal stem/progenitor cells, an isolated renal stem/progenitor cells, a therapeutic agent for renal disease, mouse mesenchymal cells which can be used for isolating human renal stem/progenitor cells and a culture supernatant of the same. Renal stem/progenitor cells are isolated by primarily culturing cells contained in the urine of a patient having renal disease in a medium containing mouse mesenchymal cells identified by the deposition number of FERM ABP-10865 or a culture supernatant of the same, staining the obtained primarily cultured cells with Hoechst 33342 and separating a weak-positive or negative fraction. |
