LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid beta-oxidation, carnitine transport.4[1], 5[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis.6[1], 7[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects carnitine-dependent fatty acid transport via SLC22A5 relative to de novo lipogenesis, indicating a balance between fatty acid oxidation and synthesis.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in SLC22A5 affect carnitine transport, altering the balance of fatty acid oxidation and synthesis reflected by the ratio.1[1], 2[2] This dysregulation in lipid metabolism is a known contributor to the associated cardiometabolic phenotypes, including ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, and dyslipidemia.8[3], 9[4], 10[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A5
