All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
WAP Four-Disulfide Core Domain Protein 2	NCIT_C20893	[WAP four-disulfide core domain protein 2 (124 aa, ~13 kDa) is encoded by the human WFDC2 gene. This protein may play a role in both proteinase inhibition and spermatogenesis.]
Epididymis	NCIT_C12328	[A crescent-like structure located in the upper and posterior surfaces of the testis. It consists of the efferent ductules and the duct of the epididymis. It facilitates the maturation of sperm that is produced in the testis.]
Average Concentration from T1 to T2 Normalized by Body Mass Index	NCIT_C132440	[The area under the curve over the interval from T1 to T2 divided by the length of the interval and then divided by the body mass index. (CDISC)]
Developmental Disabilities Nursing	NCIT_C20894	[Nursing care provided for children and adults with developmental disabilities in the homes, schools, and communities to maximize their ability to interact and function in the community at large.]
Magnesium	NCIT_C29239	[An alkaline earth metal, Magnesium is important for many biochemical functions and reactions; for bone and muscle function, protein and fatty acid formation, activation of B vitamins, blood clotting, insulin secretion, and ATP formation. More than 300 enzymes require magnesium for catalytic action. The adult daily requirement is about 300 mg/day. Magnesium is found in many green plants, vegetables, and seeds; chlorophyll is a magnesium-centered porphyrin compound. Magnesium salts are used for magnesium deficiency supplementation. (NCI04)]
Average Concentration from T1 to T2 Normalized by Dose	NCIT_C132441	[The area under the curve over the interval from T1 to T2 divided by the length of the interval and then divided by the dose. (CDISC)]
Epidemiology Nursing	NCIT_C20895	[The application of nursing principles to the study of the patterns of disease or other events across populations.]
Average Concentration from T1 to T2 Normalized by Surface Area	NCIT_C132442	[The area under the curve over the interval from T1 to T2 divided by the length of the interval and then divided by the surface area. (CDISC)]
Transplant Nursing	NCIT_C20896	[Nursing care provided to the transplant recipient and donor.]
Average Concentration from T1 to T2 Normalized by Weight	NCIT_C132443	[The area under the curve over the interval from T1 to T2 divided by the length of the interval and then divided by the weight. (CDISC)]
WFDC1 Gene	NCIT_C20806	[This gene is involved in the control of cell growth.]
WNT4 Gene	NCIT_C20807	[This gene plays a role in hormonal signaling and is involved in sex determination.]
ABCG2 Gene	NCIT_C20808	[This gene plays a role in xenobiotic transport and multi-drug resistance.]
Homologous Recombination	NCIT_C18144	[The process of exchange of genetic material between autonomous replicons, which depends on regions of extensive sequence homology between the participating DNA strands. This process involves double-strand breakage of one participant, resection of the break, and strand invasion, followed by formation, displacement and resolution of the Holliday junction. This process is involved in repairing broken DNA and creating combinations of genes that may be unique from the parent duplexes. Disruptions in this process can result in inviability, premature aging and predisposition to cancers and degenerative diseases.]
Recombination Repair	NCIT_C19534	[Homologous recombination can operate at both double-strand breaks and free ends. The homologous chromosome serves as a template for DNA repair during recombination.]
TRAF4 Gene	NCIT_C20802	[This gene is involved in signal transduction and development. It plays a putative role in the positive regulation of apoptosis in response to cellular stress.]
MSMB Gene	NCIT_C20804	[This gene may play a role in the modulation of autocrine paracrine factor in reproductive tissues, however a specific function has not been elucidated.]
Bloom Syndrome	NCIT_C2903	[Bloom syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder associated with mutations in BLM gene encoding protein that belongs to the family of DNA helicases. It is characterized by predisposition to cancer, immunodeficiency, high sensitivity to UV and genomic instability of somatic cells. (Oncogene 2001 Dec 13;20(57):8276-80)]
BLM Gene Mutation	NCIT_C43287	[A change in the nucleotide sequence of the BLM gene.]
MUCL1 Gene	NCIT_C20800	[This gene plays a role in cancer cell metastasis.]
