The purpose is to proliferate a mesenchymal stem cell to a sufficient degree while reducing the amount of blood serum contained in a biological tissue progenitor cell to be grafted, and to efficiently differentiate the mesenchymal stem cell into the biological tissue progenitor cell. There is provided a method for culturing a mesenchymal stem cell, comprising: a first culture step of proliferating a mesenchymal stem cell in a medium containing blood serum and a second culture step of differentiating the mesenchymal stem cell into a biological tissue progenitor cell in a medium containing blood serum at a lower concentration than that in the medium used in the first culture step.
