Lighting of Historic Buildings (.pdf)
English Heritage, building. English Heritage seeks to ensure that any
works to a historic building do not disturb or destroy historic fabric.
In deciding how best to illuminate a building, the principles of
minimum intervention and reversibility should be adopted whenever and
wherever possible.

The
potential of melatonin in reducing morbidity–mortality after
craniocerebral trauma, M.D. Maldonado, R. J.
Reiter and others
Melatonin reduces the toxicity... Finally, melatonin crosses the
blood–brain barrier and reduces
contusion volume and stabilizes cellular membranes preventing vasospasm
and apoptosis of endothelial cells that occurs as a result of CCT.

Towards
rational and evidence-based use of melatonin in prostate cancer
prevention and treatment, Stephen Y. W. Shiu
The rational use of melatonin in prostate cancer prevention,
stabilization of clinically localized favourable-risk prostate cancer
and palliative treatment of advanced or metastatic tumour is discussed
within the context of the molecular pathogenesis of the disease.

Signaling
mechanisms of melatonin in
antiproliferation of hormone-refractory 22Rv1 human prostate cancer
cells: implications for prostate cancer chemoprevention,
Chun W. Tam, Chi W. Mo, Kwok-Ming Yao, Stephen Y. W. Shiu
"Taken together with the known molecular mechanisms of prostate cancer
progression and transition to androgen independence, our data provide
strong support for melatonin to be a promising small-molecule useful
for prostate cancer primary prevention and secondary prevention of the
development and progression of hormone refractoriness."
