Ua iloa i se su’esu’ega le fesoasoani o le suāsusu o tinā i le puipuiga mai le kanesa o le susu, le breast cancer.


O le tāua ma aogā o le faasusuina e le tinā o lana pepe mo le ola malosi ma maloloina o le pepe, o se mea ua leva ona lausilafia ma lagolagoina i le tele o su’esu’ega.

Ae ua iloa i se suesuega a le MacCallum Cancer Centre, se so’otaga i le faasusuina o le pepe ma le puipuia o le susu o le tinā mai le a’afia i le kanesa.

Na saunoa Peter MacCallum, e iai suiga aogā e tupu i le susu o le tinā i le taimi ua sauni ai e fanau ma fa’asusuina lana pepe i lona lava suāsusu.

"The large changes that happen to the breast tissue in preparation for breastfeeding and then the resolution of that function creates a lot of stimuli for the immune cells in a way that trains them to be particularly good at patrolling and detecting cancer.  A particular type of immune cell called a CDN 8 T cell - what we found was that breastfeeding is able to train those T cells to become good at patrolling the breast tissue, detecting any cells that are beginning to turn cancerous, and then eliminating them before that can happen."

O loo malosi le vala'au i le fa'atagaina ona fa'asusu e tina a latou pepe ma fanau i nofoaga faitele e aunoa ma le fa'amasinoina e nisi pe fa'asaina e le tulafono.

Mo nisi talafou ma ripoti, fa'afofoga i le SBS Samoan i le 'upega tafa'ilagi poo le SBS Radio app, pe asiasi i le Facebook SBS Samoan
