Yes, melanocortin and its receptors are one of the central field in research for new obesity drug. But, I do not think that today investors in bt sector (except freaks from SI) are sufficiently motivated and capable to put two things together. Today reaction on BLSI news speak for itself.

Unfortunately, I do not know (anyway need quick and broad update on all NBIX <+ few others CNS bts> programs) current NBIX position on melanocortin (after Northwest acquisition): patents, receptors right, ...

MLNM and Stanford work confirm validity and promise of this research. Hope one day NBIX will have strong partner for this program.
