Of course it was done in mice, tests with animals are obviously mandatory before human trials.

Ah, I was wondering if it was one of those. And of course there's a relevant xkcd [0]

I'm happy to wait for the experimentation to weigh in for this one dawg

#7Now I can't wait for the conspiracy theory types to say this proves reptilian people theories. Lizard people just giving to help us accept them type of stuff, and maybe prove how the ape descendants need the lizard people.

No, it is not relevant in the least. Murine studies are a standard practice on the path to human trials.
Your link is not even about animal studies. It is about a petri dish.

#9100% response, zero side effects?
This sounds like world changing news. Can anyone with domain expertise explain the catch, if any?

I would be in favor of adding a standardized [in mice] to the titles of all HN submissions about medical breakthroughs. Most of them end up being in mice and many do not reproduce in humans. It would help, at a glance, to know how significant a study's results are.
