i would think it would work on beasts too :)

though here is the kicker

"Lean monkeys did not lose weight in a separate study to test for potential effects of the drug in non-obese animals, indicating that the drug's effect may be selective for obese subjects."

so when are they going to release this compound's biological name?

I particularly liked this part,

"Most drugs against obesity fail in transition between rodents and primates," Pasqualini said. "All rodent models of obesity are faulty because their metabolism and central nervous system control of appetite and satiety are very different from primates, including humans. We're greatly encouraged to see substantial weight loss in a primate model of obesity that closely matches the human condition."


Seems some people think because there are rat studies that equals results in humans.
