A host capable of serving as a nerve cell which is constructed by transferring von Hippel-Lindau gene into a cancer cell such as a neuroblastoma cell or an undifferentiated tumor cell originating in the nervous system or an embryonic stem cell and expressing therein. The obtained host is proliferated <i>in vitro</i> and then transplanted into the central nervous system or peripheral nerve. After taking, it is allowed to function as a nerve cell to thereby treat intractable nerve diseases concerning function injury such as Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's chorea, Alzheimer's disease, brain infarction, spinal cord injury, cerebral contusion, malignant tumor, etc.
