Label	Id	Description
Octadecadienoic Acid n-9	NCIT_C68402	[A polyunsaturated long-chain fatty acid with an 18-carbon backbone and double bonds originating from the 9th position and the 11th, 12th, 13th or 14th positions from the methyl end. There are at least 7 different isomers that can be called by this name.]
Beta-Thromboglobulin	NCIT_C20468	[Beta-thromboglobulin (81 aa, ~9 kDa) is encoded by the human PPBP gene. This protein plays a role in chemotaxis.]
Connective Tissue-Activating Peptide III	NCIT_C20469	[Connective tissue-activating peptide III (85 aa, ~9 kDa) is encoded by the human PPBP gene. This protein plays a role in mitogenesis, extracellular matrix synthesis and glucose metabolism.]
Cytokine Signaling	NCIT_C25976	[Any environment-to-cell cummunication that involves cytokines. This process is involved in immune function.]
Thioredoxin	NCIT_C20465	[Thioredoxin (105 aa, ~12 kDa) is encoded by the human TXN gene. This protein plays a role in redox reactions, signaling and immunity.]
Palmitoleic Acid	NCIT_C68408
Central Nervous System	NCIT_C12438	[The part of the nervous system that consists of the brain, spinal cord, and meninges.]
Epithelial Cell	NCIT_C12578	[Any of the cells of the epithelium, which covers the body and lines its cavities and glands.]
Leukocyte Trafficking	NCIT_C19438	[The circulation of white blood cells from the blood stream to tissues or secondary lymphoid organs, to the lymphatics, and back to the bloodstream via the thoracic duct.]
Parinaric Acid	NCIT_C68409	[A polyunsaturated long-chain fatty acid with an 18-carbon backbone and 4 double bonds originating from the 3rd, 5th, 7th and 9th positions from the methyl end.]
CXC Cytokine Gene	NCIT_C26010	[CXC Cytokine Genes encode Alpha Chemokines, CXC-type dual-cysteine chemokines with paired cysteine residues separated by a non-cysteine residue in their primary sequence that act as chemoattractants for neutrophils, but not for monocytes. (NCI)]
Unresectable Osteosarcoma	NCIT_C132850	[An osteosarcoma which is not amenable to surgical resection.]
Growth-Regulated Alpha Protein	NCIT_C20471	[Growth-regulated alpha protein (107 aa, ~11 kDa) is encoded by the human CXCL1 gene. This protein plays a role in neutrophil chemotaxis.]
Interferon-alpha Inducible Protein 10	NCIT_C20472	[A member of the alpha-chemokine family, IP10 is secreted from macrophages, endothelial cells, and keratinocytes in response to IFN-gamma and activates a G protein coupled receptor. IP10 has homology to PFIV, BTG, CTAP-III, and peptides associated with cell proliferation, is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis, inhibits bone marrow colony formation, has anti-tumor activity, is a chemoattractant for monocytes and T-cells, promotes T-cell adhesion to endothelial cells, and probably participates in chronic cell-mediated inflammatory reactions. The IP10 gene is a RAS signaling target. (from OMIM 147310 and NCI)]
Interleukin-8	NCIT_C20473	[Interleukin-8 (99 aa, ~11 kDa) is encoded by the human CXCL8 gene. This protein is involved in chemotaxis and neutrophil activation.]
C-X-C Motif Chemokine 2	NCIT_C20474	[C-X-C motif chemokine 2 (107 aa, ~11 kDa) is encoded by the human CXCL2 gene. This protein is involved in the regulation of both chemotaxis and hematopoietic stem cell proliferation.]
Parinaric Acid n-3	NCIT_C68410
Pentadecenoic Acid	NCIT_C68411
C-X-C Motif Chemokine 5	NCIT_C20470	[C-X-C motif chemokine 5 (114 aa, ~12 kDa) is encoded by the human CXCL5 gene. This protein is involved in both chemotaxis and activation of neutrophils.]
Pentadecenoic Acid n-9	NCIT_C68412
