    摘要: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel method which enables convenient preparation of cells exhibiting functions close to that of intestinal epithelial cells of living bodies, and use of the method. The differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells into intestinal epithelial cells is induced by step of differentiating induced pluripotent stem cells into endoderm-like cells; step of differentiating the endoderm-like cells obtained in step into intestinal stem cell-like cells; and step of differentiating the intestinal stem cell-like cells obtained in step into intestinal epithelial cell-like cells, wherein step includes culture in the presence of a MEK1 inhibitor, a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor, a TGF-β receptor inhibitor, and EGF and under the condition that cAMP is supplied to the cells.

    摘要: An object of the present invention is to prepare a functional intestinal organoid from pluripotent stem cells. An intestinal organoid is prepared from pluripotent stem cells, by the following steps (1) to (4): (1) differentiating pluripotent stem cells into endoderm-like cells; (2) differentiating the endoderm-like cells obtained in step (1) into intestinal stem cell-like cells; (3) culturing the intestinal stem cell-like cells obtained in step (2) to form spheroids; and (4) differentiating the spheroids formed in step (3) to form an intestinal organoid, the step including culture in the presence of a MEK1/2 inhibitor, a DNA methylation inhibitor, a TGF-β receptor inhibitor, and a γ-secretase inhibitor, in addition to an epidermal growth factor, a BMP inhibitor, and a Wnt signal activator.
