Label	Id	Description
Hopelessness	NCIT_C74531	[The despair you feel when you have abandoned hope of comfort or success.]
Autopsy Domain	NCIT_C49565	[A subject domain utilized for the submission of information encompassing and representing data, vocabulary or records related to autopsy.]
Nervousness	NCIT_C74532	[An uneasy psychological state; the anxious feeling you have when you have the jitters.]
CDCA8 wt Allele	NCIT_C126507	[Human CDCA8 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 1p34.3 and is approximately 17 kb in length. This allele, which encodes borealin protein, is involved in the modulation of cell division.]
1p34.3	NCIT_C13592	[A chromosome band present on 1p]
CD2BP2 Gene	NCIT_C126500	[This gene plays a role in both spliceosome assembly and T-cell activation.]
RNA Splicing	NCIT_C17106	[Removal of introns from mRNA precursors and the reattachment or annealing of exons.]
CD2BP2 wt Allele	NCIT_C126501	[Human CD2BP2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 16p11.2 and is approximately 5 kb in length. This allele, which encodes CD2 antigen cytoplasmic tail-binding protein 2, is involved in T-cell activation and RNA splicing.]
16p11.2	NCIT_C13930	[A chromosome band present on 16p]
CASP8 wt Allele	NCIT_C49560	[Human CASP8 wild-type allele is located within 2q33-q34 and is approximately 54 kb in length. This allele, which encodes caspase-8 protein, plays a role in apoptosis via the cleavage and activation of caspases 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10. Certain allelic variants of CASP8 are associated with caspase-8 protein deficiency and somatic hepatocellular carcinoma.]
CASP8 Gene	NCIT_C26623	[This gene is involved in apoptosis, immune cell homeostasis, lymphocyte activation and immunoprotection.]
CD2 Antigen Cytoplasmic Tail-Binding Protein 2	NCIT_C126502	[CD2 antigen cytoplasmic tail-binding protein 2 (341 aa, ~38 kDa) is encoded by the human CD2BP2 gene. This protein plays a role in mRNA splicing and T-cell activation.]
CASP9 wt Allele	NCIT_C49561	[Human CASP9 wild-type allele is located within 1p36.3-p36.1 and is approximately 32 kb in length. This allele, which encodes caspase-9 protein, is involved in apoptosis via the cleavage and activation of both caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP).]
CASP9 Gene	NCIT_C28424	[This gene plays a role in the initiation of the apoptotic cascade.]
Microtubule Process	NCIT_C40798	[Any cytoskeletal process involving microtubule structures and their associated proteins.]
Suprachiasmatic Nucleus	NCIT_C74537	[A tear-shaped dense area of cells in the hypothalamus, which is responsible for regulating circadian rhythms.]
Hypothalamus	NCIT_C12458	[An important supervisory center in the brain, rich in ganglia, nerve fibers, and synaptic connections. It is composed of several sections called nuclei, each of which controls a specific function. The hypothalamus regulates body temperature, blood pressure, heartbeat, metabolism of fats and carbohydrates, and sugar levels in the blood. Through direct attachment to the pituitary gland, the hypothalamus also meters secretions controlling water balance and milk production in the female. The role of the hypothalamus in awareness of pleasure and pain is well established in the laboratory. It is involved in the expression of emotions, such as fear and rage, and in sexual behaviors. Despite its numerous vital functions, the hypothalamus in humans accounts for only 1/300 of total brain weight, and is about the size of an almond. Structurally, it is joined to the thalamus; the two work together to monitor the sleep-wake cycle.]
Fecal Immunochemical Test	NCIT_C74538	[A fecal occult blood test that uses an immunological assay to detect hemoglobin in stool.]
Fecal Occult Blood Test	NCIT_C18014	[A noninvasive test that detects the presence of hidden (occult) blood in the stool. This is commonly performed to screen for colon cancer.]
Unrehydrated Guaiac Test	NCIT_C74539	[A fecal occult blood test that uses a colorimetric assay to detect fragmented hemoglobin in stool. The assay slides or paper are not hydrated during sample processing.]
