An object is to provide a composition and a method for eliminating undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells remaining in a cell group induced to differentiate from pluripotent stem cells. It has been found that while dihydroorotate dehydrogenase inhibitors exhibit cytotoxic activity against pluripotent stem cells, they do not exhibit significant cytotoxic activity against differentiated cells such as somatic stem cells.

Isolated antibodies that bind to human CD38 and cynomolgus CD38 are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the disclosed antibodies, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the disclosed antibodies.

Pluripotent stem cells are suspension-cultured with the undifferentiated state thereof maintained. In suspension culture of pluripotent stem cells, the undifferentiated state is maintained by the presence of a PKC inhibitor, especially, a PKCβ inhibitor, and a tankyrase inhibitor (TNKS inhibitor).

[Problem] To provide novel anti-tumor agents and combination drugs.

[Means to solve] To provide an anti-tumor agent containing, as an active ingredient, a glutathione level reducer or a glutathione S-transferase inhibitor, the anti-tumor agent being adapted to be administered simultaneously with an effective amount of a compound (II); an anti-tumor agent including a compound (II) as an active ingredient, the anti-tumor agent being adapted to be administered simultaneously with an effective amount of a glutathione level reducer or a glutathione S-transferase inhibitor; or an anti-tumor agent containing, as active ingredients, a compound (II) and a glutathione level reducer or a glutathione S-transferase inhibitor, where R.sup.5 is a linear or branched C1-6 alkyl group, R.sup.6 is hydrogen or halogen, R.sup.7 is a linear or branched C1-6 alkyl group optionally substituted with a substituent, the substituent being hydroxy or phenyl, and R.sup.8 is hydrogen or halogen.

A method for analyzing thrombogenic capacity or blood coagulation capacity, the method comprising adding calcium, a blood coagulation factor XII (FXII) inhibitor, and a kallikrein inhibitor to blood collected with a blood collection tube containing sodium citrate, to allow initiation of blood coagulation reaction, is provided. Preferably, heparin, heparan sulfate, and tissue factor are further added to the blood, and thrombogenic capacity or blood coagulation capacity is analyzed.

Provided are a cancer therapeutic drug comprising a compound which inhibits GPX4 as an active ingredient, the cancer therapeutic drug treating cancer containing a cancer cell having a suppressed function of a SWI/SNF complex factor detected; and a method for predicting sensitivity of a cancer cell to a GPX4 inhibitor, the method comprising the step of predicting a cancer cell having a suppressed function of a SWI/SNF complex factor detected in the cancer cell, as having sensitivity to the GPX4 inhibitor.

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for treating bacterial infections in a subject. The methods comprise administering a compound that binds a FAD-dependent flavoenzyme and a tetracycline, analog, derivative, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
