    Abstract: The invention provides a method of removing or reducing undifferentiated cells from a differentiated cell population contaminated or having a risk of contamination with undifferentiated cells by contacting a pigment epithelium-derived factor with the differentiated cell population to induce apoptosis of the undifferentiated cells. The invention also provides an agent for cell transplantation therapy, containing a differentiated cell population substantially free of an undifferentiated cell, which is obtained by the method, as well as an agent for inducing apoptosis of an undifferentiated cell, containing a pigment epithelium-derived factor, and combined use of the aforementioned agent for cell transplantation therapy and the aforementioned agent for inducing apoptosis.

    Abstract: A method may predict risk of onset of severe interstitial pneumonia caused by an immune checkpoint inhibitor to achieve a safe and highly effective cancer immunotherapy. Any one or more selected from: (a) cell count or proportion of Vδ2+γδ T cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from a subject; (b) cell count or proportion of Vδ2+γδ T cells after antigenic stimulation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from a subject; (c) cell count or proportion of Vδ2+γδ T cells in peripheral blood T cells isolated from a subject; and (d) cell count or proportion of Vδ2+γδ T cells after antigenic stimulation in peripheral blood T cells isolated from a subject are measured, and the risk of onset of severe interstitial pneumonia is predicted by using the cell count or proportion as an index.
