PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods for establishing an iPS cell line from human T lymphocytes and inducing differentiation of the iPS cell to functional T lymphocytes retaining the TCR gene rearrangement structure of original human T lymphocyte.SOLUTION: There is provided herein, a method for producing human T cells, which comprises the steps of inducing an iPS cell from a human T cell, and differentiating the iPS cell into a T cell. Also there is provided a pharmaceutical composition containing the T cells produced by this method as well as a method for cell-based immunotherapy using the method.SELECTED DRAWING: NoneCOPYRIGHT: (C)2020,JPO&INPIT【課題】ヒトTリンパ球からiPS細胞を樹立することに加え、さらに、樹立したiPS細胞を、元のヒトTリンパ球が有していたTCR遺伝子の組み換え構造を保ったまま、機能的なTリンパ球へ分化誘導する方法の提供。【解決手段】ヒトT細胞からiPS細胞を誘導する工程と、該iPS細胞をT細胞に分化させる工程とを含む、ヒトT細胞を製造する方法、該方法によって製造されたT細胞を含有する医薬組成物、並びに該方法を利用する免疫細胞治療の方法。【選択図】なし
