Meiji Holdings has partnered with Dr. Tsuji, most likely working towards a cure using stem cells to multiply hairs. As of now, we know that Meiji will be providing funds to Tsuji's team in order to aquire rights to whatever treatment results of their partnership. Given that Tsuji has been working for quite awhile on a cure, we can assume that he is going to continue working toward the "holy grail" treatment, which is permanent DHT immune hairs that can be multiplied and then injected back into the patient's scalp. At least this is how I understand his work. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Regardless, this is very good news and puts us one step closer to an ultimate cure.

This is also in Japan, so if a cure is found, commericialization will be possible during phase 2 with conditional approval. This seems like the perfect environment to develop something.
