LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Branched-chain fatty acid oxidation, Amino acid catabolism.4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Succinyl-CoA pathway, Fatty acid metabolism.7[1], 8[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may reflect mitochondrial stress, where SOD2 dysfunction impacts pathways involving both propionylcarnitine and methylsuccinoylcarnitine, though the direct biochemical link is unclear.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

SOD2 dysfunction can lead to mitochondrial oxidative stress, which is linked to impaired lipid metabolism.9[1], 10[2], 11[3], 12[4] This dysregulation may contribute to hypercholesterolemia and other lipidaemias.

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SOD2
