Label	Id	Description
Viral Gastroenteritis	NCIT_C35374	[Gastroenteritis resulting from a viral infection.]
Chest Wall Cyst	NCIT_C35661	[A cystic lesion in the chest wall.]
Cyst	NCIT_C2978	[A sac-like closed membranous structure that may be empty or contain fluid or amorphous material.]
Protein Dephosphorylation	NCIT_C21018	[The covalent chemical or post-translational biochemical removal of a phosphate group(s) from a peptide or protein, by phosphatases. (NCI)]
Dephosphorylation	NCIT_C20612	[The catalyzed removal of phosphate groups from biological molecules, by phosphatases.]
Suppression of Cancer Cell Invasion	NCIT_C21019	[Inhibition by malignant cells of infiltration and destruction of tissues proximal or distant to the primary cancer.]
Inhibition of Cancer Cell Growth	NCIT_C29895	[Intercellular, cellular, and subcellular mechanisms that inhibit or block the induction, promotion, maintenance, or completion of cell division in cancer cells.]
Host Defense Mechanism	NCIT_C18839	[Host Defenses against pathology include physical barriers to pathogens, immediate nonspecific and constitutive (innate) defenses, specific inducible immune responses, metabolic and physiologic homeostatic mechanisms, detoxification, repair processes, and healing mechanisms.]
BMP/Retinoic Acid-Inducible Neural-Specific Protein 1	NCIT_C21015	[BMP/retinoic acid-inducible neural-specific protein 1 (761 aa, ~89 kDa) is encoded by the human BRINP1 gene. This protein plays a role in both cell cycle arrest and the regulation of cell death.]
Cell Cycle Protein	NCIT_C17761	[Proteins involved in the process of cell division. Numerous proteins of different functionality and type are involved in this process.]
Cytoplasm	NCIT_C13226	[That portion of the cell contained within the plasma membrane but excluding the nucleus.]
BRINP1 Gene	NCIT_C24331	[This gene plays a role in the inhibition of cell proliferation.]
Positive Regulation of Cell Death	NCIT_C40715	[Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of cell death.]
Negative Regulation of Cell Cycle	NCIT_C18824	[An interruption in the periodic biochemical and structural events occurring during proliferation of cells such as in tissue culture; the cycle is divided into periods called: G0, Gap1 (G1), synthesis (S1), Gap2 (G2), and mitosis (M). The period runs from one division to the next.]
CD58 Gene	NCIT_C21016	[This gene plays a role in facilitating contacts between helper T lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells.]
Cell-Cell Adhesion Process	NCIT_C19663	[Any cellular process in which one cell attaches to another via cell adhesion molecules.]
Cytokine Signaling Process	NCIT_C40584	[Any process which promotes expression of cytokine proteins, their subsequent secretion, binding to their cognate receptors or intracellular signaling, and results in functional responses in the immune system. This process is involved in regulating active populations of specific immune cell types, as well as coordinating systemic responses to pathogenic infection.]
Protein Acetylation	NCIT_C21017	[The covalent chemical or post-translational biochemical addition of an acetyl group(s) to a peptide or protein. (NCI)]
Post-Translational Modification	NCIT_C17019	[The enzymatic processing of a polypeptide chain after translation from messenger RNA and after peptide bond formation has occurred. Examples include glycosylation, acylation, limited proteolysis, phosphorylation, isoprenylation.]
Cadherin-5	NCIT_C21021	[Cadherin-5 (784 aa, ~88 kDa) is encoded by the human CDH5 gene. This protein is involved in endothelial cell polarity and cell-cell adhesion.]
