All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
CARM1 wt Allele	NCIT_C88222	[Human CARM1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 19p13.2 and is approximately 51 kb in length. This allele, which encodes histone-arginine methyltransferase CARM1 protein, plays a role in transcription regulation, protein methylation and chromatin remodeling. Aberrant expression of the gene is associated with both prostate adenocarcinomas and high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia.]
Histone-Arginine Methyltransferase CARM1	NCIT_C88223	[Histone-arginine methyltransferase CARM1 (585 aa, ~63 kDa) is encoded by the human CARM1 gene. This protein is involved in the mediation of protein methylation that, in turn, regulates both chromatin organization and transcription.]
Humidity	NCIT_C88206	[A measure of the water vapor content of air.]
Vaginal Cuff	NCIT_C88207	[The part of the apical portion of the vagina which is closed with sutures following total hysterectomy.]
Surgically Created Structure	NCIT_C25761	[Any anatomical feature created by surgery. This includes structures created to mimic the function of a structure removed by surgery or destroyed by disease.]
Culdoscope	NCIT_C88208	[An endoscope for examination of a woman's pelvic organs through the vagina.]
Culdoscopy	NCIT_C88209	[Endoscopic examination of a woman's pelvic organs using a culdoscope inserted through the vagina.]
YWHAZ Gene	NCIT_C88202	[This gene is involved in both interactions with phosphoproteins and signal transduction.]
Ventilation	NCIT_C88203	[The act of moving air into and out of a space.]
Desiccation	NCIT_C88204	[The act of removing moisture from something.]
YWHAZ wt Allele	NCIT_C88205	[Human YWHAZ wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 8q23.1 and is approximately 35 kb in length. This allele, which encodes 14-3-3 protein zeta/delta, plays a role in signal transduction. Amplification of the gene may be associated with both anthracycline resistance and metastatic recurrence in breast cancer.]
Vaginal Undifferentiated Carcinoma	NCIT_C40264	[A carcinoma that arises from the vagina and is characterized by the lack of specific cellular differentiation.]
Vaginal Soft Tissue Neoplasm	NCIT_C40265	[A benign or malignant mesenchymal neoplasm of the vagina. Representative examples include leiomyoma, rhabdomyoma, leiomyosarcoma, endometrioid stromal sarcoma, and botryoid-type embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma.]
Cervical Rhabdomyoma	NCIT_C40266	[A rare benign skeletal muscle neoplasm arising from the cervix. It is characterized by the presence of small nucleated rhabdomyoblasts within a fibrous and myxoid stroma.]
Benign Cervical Soft Tissue Neoplasm	NCIT_C128053	[A rare benign mesenchymal neoplasm that arises from the cervix.]
Genital Rhabdomyoma	NCIT_C6517	[A rare benign skeletal muscle neoplasm arising from the female genital tract. It is characterized by the presence of small nucleated rhabdomyoblasts within a fibrous and myxoid stroma.]
Adult Botryoid-Type Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma of the Vagina	NCIT_C40267	[A morphologic variant of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma arising from the vagina. It is characterized by the formation of a cambium layer in the affected tissue and polypoid nodules with an abundant myxoid stroma. It occurs in female adults.]
Adult Botryoid-Type Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma	NCIT_C36099	[A morphologic variant of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma occurring in adults. The neoplasm arises from organs containing a mucosal epithelial surface. It is characterized by the formation of a cambium layer in the affected tissue and polypoid nodules with an abundant myxoid stroma.]
Adult Soft Tissue Sarcoma	NCIT_C7707	[Soft tissue sarcoma occurring in adults.]
Vaginal Rhabdomyosarcoma	NCIT_C128080	[A malignant mesenchymal neoplasm with skeletal muscle differentiation arising from the vagina.]
