To align the xeno-metanephros and renal progenitor cell timing for transplantation treatments, cryopreservation techniques and an efficient transportation of regenerated renal products such as xeno-metanephroi and renal progenitor cells should be established. Therefore, we propose a novel method of xenogeneic regenerative medicine for patients with chronic kidney disease by grafting porcine fetal kidneys injected with human renal progenitor cells. To develop a useful cryopreserve system of porcine fetal kidney and human renal progenitor cells, we examined the cryopreservation of a fetal kidney implanted with renal progenitor cells in a mouse model. First, we developed a new method for direct cell injection under the capsule of the metanephros using gelatin as a support for unzipped fetal kidneys. Then, we confirmed in vitro that the nephrons derived from the transplanted cells were regenerated even after cryopreservation before and after cell transplantation. Furthermore, the cryopreserved chimeric metanephroi grew, and regenerated nephrons were observed in NOD. We confirmed that even in cryopreserved chimeric metanephroi, transplanted cell-derived nephrons as well as fresh transplants grew.
