LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Androgen and estrogen metabolism

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Androgen and estrogen metabolism

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects AKR1C4 activity, which catalyzes the reduction of ketosteroids; altered levels suggest differential metabolism of androgen precursors impacting downstream steroid profiles.1[1], 3[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

AKR1C4 genetic variants are linked to altered enzyme activity, influencing steroid and bile acid metabolism.4[1], 5[2] This dysregulation is associated with changes in liver function (GGT, ALP, TBil) and lipid profiles (triglycerides, cholesterol), consistent with the enzyme's role in hepatic lipid homeostasis.5[3], 6[4], 2[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:AKR1C4
