An object of the present invention is to provide a means capable of transferring a cell sheet, a cell pattern or the like to a desired material at a high speed. The present invention provides a substrate for cell culture comprising a base and a cell adhesive region formed on a surface of the base, wherein the cell adhesive region is formed of a film that is rendered cell adhesive by applying an oxidation treatment and/or a decomposition treatment to a cell-adhesion inhibitory hydrophilic film containing an organic compound having a carbon-oxygen bond.
