An object of the present invention is to provide a pericyte-like cell having high angiogenic potential with a higher cell proliferation ability than a primary pericyte available in the past and high VEGF expression, and a method for producing the same. Provided are a method for producing a VEGF-highly expressing pericyte-like cell, the method including selecting a CD56(−) pericyte-like cell from a population including a pericyte-like cell obtained by inducing differentiation of a pluripotent stem cell; and a VEGF-highly expressing pericyte-like cell produced by the production method.
