Girgert R, Hanf V, Emons G, Gründker C.
In breast cancer cells transfected with MT1 exposed to 1.2 microT of the 50 Hz EMF, the expression of p53 and c-myc increased significantly after melatonin treatment.

Circadian stage-dependent inhibition of human breast cancer metabolism and growth by the nocturnal melatonin signal: consequences of its disruption by light at night in rats and women

Integr Cancer Ther. 2009 Dec;8(4):347-53.
Blask DE, Dauchy RT, Brainard GC, Hanifin JP.
Melatonin's anticancer effects in vivo involves inhibition of linoleic acid(LA)uptake and its metabolism to mitogenically active 13-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (13-HODE).
LA 13-HODE

Global breast cancer seasonality

Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2010 Aug;123(1):233-43.
Latitude-dependent breast cancer seasonality.
Breast cancer is consistently diagnosed more often in spring. Its mechanism may depend upon seasonal sunlight mediation of vitamin D and seasonal mediation of nocturnal melatonin peak level and duration.
Latitude-dependent breast cancer seasonality.
