Label	Id	Description
Estrogen Metabolic Process	NCIT_C20136	[Estrogen Metabolism consists of diverse biochemical reactions primarily in the ovary that produce 19-carbon steroid hormones, which promote secondary female sexual development and menstrual function or convert such steroids to metabolic derivatives.]
Repairosome	NCIT_C20129	[A liposome that contains a repair protein for use in topical lotion as therapy or prevention.]
Liposome	NCIT_C18208	[Substances composed of layers of lipid that form hollow microscopic spheres within which drugs or agents could be contained for enhanced safety and efficacy.]
CSK Gene	NCIT_C20123	[This gene is involved in signal transduction and intercellular adhesion.]
T-Cell Receptor Activation	NCIT_C19060	[Any process in which a specific pair of interactions is observed between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell, where the interactions include those between the T cell receptor and the major histocompatibility complex and those between CD28 and B7 family members.

Phosphoprotein Phosphatase	NCIT_C20132	[Encoded by Protein Phosphatase Genes, Protein Phosphatase enzymes remove tyrosine-, serine-, or threonine-bound phosphate groups from many phosphoproteins, including enzymes phosphorylated by a tyrosine kinase or a serine/threonine kinase. (NCI)]
Anguilla	NCIT_C20133	[A group of islands in the Caribbean Sea, east of the Virgin Islands and north of Saint Kitts and Nevis.]
Caribbean	NCIT_C26320	[A group of islands in the Caribbean Sea. These islands curve southward from the bottom tip of Florida to the Northwest of Venezuela in South America.

Oropharyngeal (p16-Negative) Cancer cN2a TNM Finding v8	NCIT_C132947	[Oropharyngeal (p16-negative) cancer with metastasis in a single ipsilateral lymph node larger than 3 cm but not larger than 6 cm in greatest dimension and ENE(-). (from AJCC 8th Ed.)]
American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis	NCIT_C34769	[The most common form of leishmaniasis that is transmitted through the bite of female phlebotomine sand flies or after exposure to leishmania parasites. It is characterized by skin lesions at the site of insect bite which typically develop within weeks or months after exposure. The lesions typically progress from small papules to open sores with raised borders and central ulcers which can be covered with scales or crust.]
