    Abstract: Provided is a method for producing a stem cell-derived lacrimal gland tissue, the method comprising isolating SSEA4 and CD104 double positive cells from a self-formed ectodermal autonomous multi-zone (SEAM) cell population derived from pluripotent stem cells and three-dimensionally culturing the isolated cells in a medium with epidermal growth factor (EGF) and a ROCK inhibitor to produce a cell population expressing a lacrimal gland-related protein. The present invention provides a lacrimal gland organoid produced from pluripotent stem cells including iPS cells and thus is very useful for cell-based regenerative therapy for lacrimal gland-related diseases and cell-based research on the diseases.

    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for determining anatomical sites of a body surface tissue. Provided is a method for determining an anatomical site of origin of a body surface tissue specimen, the method comprising the steps of:(A) selecting at least 8 kinds of genes from the group consisting of a Hox gene family and a Pax6 gene; (B) measuring the expression levels of the genes selected in the above (A) in the body surface tissue specimen; and (C) determining the anatomical site of origin of the body surface tissue specimen based on the expression levels or a combination of the expression levels measured in the above (B).
