LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Androgen metabolism, Steroid sulfation5[1], 6[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Androgen metabolism, Steroid glucuronidation7[1], 8[2], 9[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects competing androgen inactivation pathways: sulfation (epiandrosterone sulfate) by SULTs versus glucuronidation (androsterone glucuronide) by UGTs like UGT2B15/UGT2B17.7[1], 9[2], 2[3], 4[4]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic evidence suggests altered SULT2A1 activity, which influences the balance of steroid and bile acid metabolism.1[1], 3[2], 10[3] This dysregulation is linked to an increased risk of cholelithiasis (gallstones) and disorders of lipoprotein metabolism.10[4], 11[5], 12[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SULT2A1
