Uninzi lweentloko ezibomvu ziyazi ukuba zisengozini yomhlaza wolusu, kodwa abaphandi babengaqinisekanga ukuba kutheni. Ngoku, isifundo esitsha esipapashwe kwijenali Unxibelelwano lweNdalo inempendulo: Ufuzo lwe-MC1R, oluqhelekileyo kodwa olungakhethiyo kwi-redheads, lunyusa inani lokuguqulwa kwamathumba omhlaza wolusu. Yimfuza efanayo enoxanduva lokunika iintloko ezibomvu umbala weenwele zabo kunye neempawu ezihamba nazo, njengolusu oluluthuthu, ukuba sengozini yokutshiswa lilanga, kunye namabala. Imfuza inengxaki kangangokuba abaphandi bathi ukuba nayo kuyalingana nokuchitha iminyaka engama-21 (!!) elangeni.

Abaphandi abavela kwiZiko i-Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute kunye neDyunivesithi yaseLeeds bajonge ukulandelelana kwe-DNA kwizigulana ezingaphezulu kwama-400 ze-melanoma. Abo babephethe i-MC1R gene babene-42 yepesenti yokutshintsha okunokuthi kunxulunyaniswe nelanga. Yiyo le nto yingxaki: Utshintsho lubangela ukonakala kwi-DNA yolusu, kwaye ukuba nokunye okuninzi kunyusa amathuba okuba iiseli ezinomhlaza zithathe indawo. Beka ngokulula, ukuba nolu hlobo luthetha ukuba umhlaza wolusu uya kusasazeka kwaye ube yingozi.

I-Brunettes kunye ne-blondes kufuneka zixhalabe, kwakhona, ekubeni i-MC1R gene ayikuphelanga kwi-redheads. Ngokwesiqhelo, iintloko ezibomvu ziphethe izinto ezimbini ezahlukeneyo zohlobo lwe-MC1R, kodwa nokuba nekopi enye, njengokuba ubuya kwenza ukuba unomzali onentloko ebomvu, kunokukubeka emngciphekweni olinganayo. Abaphandi baye baqaphela ngokubanzi ukuba abantu abaneempawu ezikhanyayo, amabala, okanye abo bathanda ukutshisa elangeni kufuneka baqaphele ukuba basemngciphekweni omkhulu wokuba nomhlaza wolusu. Uphando luziindaba ezimnandi kuba lunokunika abantu abanofuzo lwe-MC1R intloko phezulu ukuba kufuneka balumke kakhulu xa bephumile elangeni. Ukuba ufuna ukubona ukuba unayo, unokukhetha ukuvavanywa kofuzo, nangona iAmerican Cancer Society icebisa ukuba undwendwele i-derm yakho rhoqo, ujonge kakhulu utshintsho olwenziwe kulusu lwakho, kwaye ukhuthalele ukukhuselwa lilanga. Iinwele ezibomvu okanye hayi, kufuneka uzibophelele emthunzini phakathi kwe-11 am kunye ne-3 p.m. xa ilanga lelona linamandla, kwaye wenze i-SPF 30 okanye ngaphezulu ibaluleke kakhulu kwinkqubo yakho yakusasa njengokujonga i-Instagram.
