LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Omega-3 fatty acid metabolism5[1], 6[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid beta-oxidation7[1], 8[2], 9[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio may reflect cellular carnitine status and fatty acid metabolism, as SLC22A5 mediates carnitine uptake required for palmitoylcarnitine's transport into mitochondria.1[1], 7[2], 8[3]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced SLC22A5 function can impair carnitine uptake, affecting fatty acid oxidation and leading to inflammatory responses and altered immune cell counts, including neutrophils, eosinophils, and lymphocytes.1[1], 3[2], 10[3], 11[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A5
