Overview

Decreases: A -| B - For terms A and B, A decreases B or A -| B indicates that increases in A have been observed to cause decreases in B. A decreases B also represents cases where decreases in A have been observed to cause increases in B, for example, in recording the results of gene deletion or other inhibition experiments. A is a BEL Term and B is either a BEL Term or a BEL Statement. The relationship does not indicate that the changes in A are either necessary for changes in B, nor does it indicate that changes in A are sufficient to cause changes in B.

Decreases:  +A -| B+ -  For terms A and B, +A decreases B or
A -| B+ indicates that increases in A have been observed to
cause decreases in B. +A decreases B+ also represents cases
where decreases in A have been observed to cause increases in B,
for example, in recording the results of gene deletion or other
inhibition experiments. A is a BEL Term and B is either a BEL
Term or a BEL Statement. The relationship does not indicate
that the changes in A are either necessary for changes in B,
nor does it indicate that changes in A are sufficient to cause
changes in B.
