ABSTRACT:
Provided are a method of producing a culturable cell with no nucleus, showing mitochondrial activity, comprising: performing cell fusion between a nucleus-less cell having mitochondrial DNA and a mitochondrial DNA-less cultured cell derived from a cancer cell; culturing resulting cybrid cells; and recovering floating cells from obtained cultured cells, and a cell obtained by the method.
