Overview

Increases: A -> B - For terms A and B, A increases B or A -> B indicates that increases in A have been observed to cause increases in B. A increases B also represents cases where decreases in A have been observed to cause decreases 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.

Increases:  +A -> B+ -  For terms A and B, +A increases B or
A -> B+ indicates that increases in A have been observed to
cause increases in B. +A increases B+ also represents cases
where decreases in A have been observed to cause decreases 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
