LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis/metabolism.4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism/beta-oxidation.7[1], 8[2], 9[3], 10[4]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase (SCD) activity, where SCD-mediated synthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids may influence the pool of saturated fatty acylcarnitines like palmitoylcarnitine.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced SCD activity is associated with lower levels of monounsaturated fatty acids and potentially altered levels of saturated acylcarnitines, which has been linked to a decreased risk of myocardial infarction, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.11[1], 12[2], 13[3], 14[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SCD
