All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
Anti-Infective Agent	NCIT_C254	[A pharmacological agent that can kill or prevent the reproduction of infectious organisms.]
Azaspirium Chloride	NCIT_C74154
Bronchodilator	NCIT_C319
Pretamazium Iodide	NCIT_C74150
Sodium Caprylate	NCIT_C74148
Naftoxate	NCIT_C74149
Glisindamide	NCIT_C74144	[A second-generation sulfonylurea with antihyperglycemic activity. Like other second-generation compounds, glisindamide exerts greater binding affinity to sulfonylurea receptor type 1 (SUR1) than the first-generation compounds and shows peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) agonistic activity.]
Sulfonylurea Antidiabetic Agent	NCIT_C97936	[Sulfonamide urea derivatives with antihyperglycemic activity. Sulphonylurea antidiabetic agents bind to sulfonylurea receptor type 1 (SUR1), the subunit of ATP-sensitive inwardly-rectifier potassium (IKATP) channels on the membranes of pancreatic beta cells, thereby blocking the inward current flow (influx) of positively charged K+ ions into the cell. This results in tonic membrane depolarization, and induces a calcium ion influx through voltage-sensitive calcium channels; increased intracellular calcium ion levels trigger exocytosis of insulin-containing granules. This eventually induces secretion of insulin. The IKATP channels found in pancreatic islets are complexes of four IKATP 6.2 and four SUR1 subunits. In addition, some sulfonylureas of larger molecular size may increase the sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin mediated through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma).]
Glicondamide	NCIT_C74145	[A sulfonamide derivative with antihyperglycemic activity. Like sulfonylureas, glicondamide is able to lower blood glucose levels by increasing the release of insulin from pancreatic beta cells.]
Dazopride Fumarate	NCIT_C74146
Clometherone	NCIT_C74147
Antiestrogen	NCIT_C481	[Substances that inhibit or antagonize the biosynthesis or biologic effects of estrogens by either antagonizing the responsiveness of estrogen sensitive tissues or competing with their binding sites.]
Pokeweed Mitogen	NCIT_C88789	[A group of proteins isolated from the roots of pokeweed, Phytolacca americana, with hemagglutinating and mitogenic properties. Pokeweed mitogen is particularly mitogenic for lymphocytes and also agglutinates erythrocytes.]
Phytohemagglutinin	NCIT_C88791	[A class of lectins, found in beans, with hemagglutination properties. Phytohemagglutinin binds to complex oligosaccharides containing galactose, N-acetylglucosamine and mannose, causing agglutination of most mammalian red blood cell types. It induces mitosis and affects cell membrane permeability, thereby facilitating protein transport.]
Carcinoma of the Lacrimal Gland Pathologic Primary Tumor TNM Finding v7	NCIT_C88785	[A pathologic finding about one or more characteristics of carcinoma of the lacrimal gland, following the rules of the TNM AJCC v7 classification system as they pertain to staging of the primary tumor.]
Carcinoma of the Lacrimal Gland pTX TNM Finding v7	NCIT_C88786	[Carcinoma of the lacrimal gland in which the primary tumor cannot be assessed. (from AJCC 7th Ed.)]
Carcinoma of the Lacrimal Gland pT0 TNM Finding v7	NCIT_C88787	[Carcinoma of the lacrimal gland with no evidence of a primary tumor. (from AJCC 7th Ed.)]
Methixene	NCIT_C74162
Antiparkinsonian Agent	NCIT_C38149	[Any agent that is used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Antiparkinsonian agents act by restoring the striatal balance between dopaminergic and cholinergic neurotransmission.]
Botiacrine	NCIT_C74163
