Prolactin Inhibiting Factor Release	NCIT_C40614	[Any process in which the monoamine neurohormone dopamine is released from the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus and binds to receptors in the anterior pituitary, resulting in inhibition of secretion of prolactin. This process is involved in terminating the production of milk once lactation is complete.]
Cancer and Nutrition	NCIT_C15658	[Systematic investigation into the role that nutrition plays in cancer.]
Prothyroliberin Release	NCIT_C40615	[Any process in which the tripeptide hormone prothyroliberin is released from the hypothalamus, processed and bound to receptors in the anterior pituitary, resulting in sustained release of prolactin from the anterior pituitary. Thyroliberin may be elevated in primary hypothyroidism, resulting in elevated prolactin secretion. This process is involved in regulating the levels of both prolactin and thyroid-stimulating hormone.]
Aging and Nutrition	NCIT_C15659	[The study of how nutritional needs change with aging.]
Renal Hormone Activity Alteration	NCIT_C40616	[Any physiologic process that results in modulated activity of any of the renal hormones, including renin, erythropoietin, thrombopoietin and calcitriol. These processes are involved in regulation of blood pressure, production of red blood cells and platelets, and calcium homeostasis.]

Any aspect of vaccine research, development, testing, etc., for diseases other than AIDS. A vaccine must involve the administration of an antigen to induce an active and specific immune response. Induction of passive immunity does not constitute a vaccine although the term is sometimes misused for this process.]
Vaccine Research	NCIT_C26028	[Research focusing on any aspect of vaccine research, development, testing, etc.]
ATCC	NCIT_C15661	[A global nonprofit bioscience organization (located at 10801 University Boulevard, Manassas, VA 20110-2209 703-365-2700) that provides biological products, technical services, and educational programs to private industry, government, and academic organizations around the world.
