Abstract: A vehicle control device includes image capturing units, control equipment that extracts at least one living body from image information captured by the image capturing units and performs processing, and a door operating system capable of unlocking the doors of a vehicle and executing an opening operation for the doors. When a user of the vehicle is included among a plurality of the extracted living bodies and it is estimated that a predetermined type of living body is in contact with the user, the control equipment causes the doors to be operated in a first mode. When the user is included among the plurality of the extracted living bodies and it is estimated that the predetermined type of living body is not in contact with the user, the control equipment causes the doors to be operated in a second mode that differs from the first mode.

Abstract: SUSD2 protein is used as a marker in identification, selection or separation of pancreatic internal secretion precursor cells and/or newborn pancreatic internal secretion cells; and a use of an mRNA, for encoding the SUSD2 protein, of a precursor protein as the marker in identification of the pancreatic internal secretion precursor cells and/or the newborn pancreatic internal secretion cells. Analysis of gene expression of pancreatic endoderm cells sourced by induced directional differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells finds the enrichment expression of a SUSD2 gene in the pancreatic internal secretion precursor cells and the newborn pancreatic internal secretion cells. A protein encoded by the SUSD2 gene is a receptor protein on cell membranes. Using the protein as the marker, the identification, the selection or the separation of the pancreatic internal secretion precursor cells and the newborn pancreatic internal secretion cells can be conducted.
