It is an object to provide a technique useful for embryo transfer and development of reproductive medical care. Provided are a sperm activator containing a disrupted product of one or more cells selected from the group consisting of adipose tissue-derived stem cells, dental pulp-derived stem cells, bone marrow-derived stem cells, and umbilical cord blood-derived stem cells as an active ingredient, and an artificial insemination method utilizing the same.

Sperm activator and uses thereof

An object is to provide a novel medical use of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells. It was discovered that adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASC) promote improvement of erectile dysfunction and recovery of the urge to urinate (improvement of sensory disorders of the lower urinary tract). On the basis of the discovery, a cell preparation containing adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells, which is effective to erectile dysfunction or sensory disorders of the lower urinary tract, is provided. In one embodiment, adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells and body fat are used in combination.
