LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism (acyl glutamine)6[1], 7[2], 8[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid omega-oxidation9[1], 10[2], 11[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects competing fatty acid fates; increased levels suggest reduced omega-oxidation (denominator) relative to glutamine conjugation (numerator), potentially due to altered CYP4B1 function.4[1], 12[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

The CYP4 gene family (CYP4B1, CYP4A11) metabolizes fatty acids, producing signaling molecules like 20-HETE that regulate vascular tone.13[1], 14[2] Altered CYP4B1/A11 function, indicated by the ratio, likely perturbs this signaling, contributing to essential hypertension.5[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:CYP4B1
